The aim is to develop a vaccine that provides cross-protection against the whole genus, addressing outbreaks, and enhancing epidemic preparedness.

Twenty different COVID-19 variants were effectively identified and neutralized after a third booster, according to the new study for which the University of Surrey provided the crucial antigenic map of variants of concern.

Share SARS-CoV-2 is a coronavirus, so named because spike proteins on its surface give it the appearance of a crown (‘corona’). The spike proteins bind to ACE2, a protein receptor found on the surface of cells in our body. Both the spike protein and ACE2 are then cleaved, allowing genetic material from the virus to enter the host cell. The virus manipulates the host cell’s machinery to allow the virus to replicate and spread. As SARS-CoV-2 divides and replicates, errors in its genetic makeup cause it to mutate. Some mutations make the virus more transmissible or more infectious, some he...

University of Cambridge One of the key mutations seen in the ‘Alpha variant’ of SARS-CoV-2 – the deletion of two amino acids, H69/V70 – enables the virus to overcome chinks in its armour as it evolves, say an international team of scientists.
