No higher infectivity but immune escape of SARS-CoV-2 501Y.V2 variantsExperiments with pseudotyped viruses show that the 501Y.V2 variant of SARS-CoV-2 exhibits resistance to neutralization from monoclonal antibodies and sera from convalescent as well as immunized individuals, predominantly due to the E484K and N501Y mutations in the receptor-binding domain of the viral spike protein.Experiments with pseudotyped viruses show that the 501Y.V2 variant of SARS-CoV-2 exhibits resistance to neutralization from monoclonal antibodies and sera from convalescent as well as immunized individuals, predominantly due to the E484K and N501Y mutations in the receptor-binding domain of the viral spike protein.Qianqian Li, Jianhui Nie, Jiajing Wu, Li Zhang, Ruxia Ding, Haixin Wang, Yue Zhang, Tao Li, Shuo Liu, Mengyi Zhang, Chenyan Zhao, Huan Liu, Lingling Nie, Haiyang Qin, Meng Wang, Qiong Lu, Xiaoyu Li, Junkai Liu, Haoyu Liang, Yi Shi, Yuelei Shen, Liangzhi Xie, Linqi Zhang, Xiaowang Qu, Wenbo Xu, Weijin Huang, Youchun Wanghttps://secure.jbs.elsevierhealth.com/action/getSharedSiteSession?redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cell.com%2Fcell%2Ffulltext%2FS0092-8674%2821%2900231-2%3Frss%3Dyes&rc=0http://www.cell.com/cell/inpress.rssCellCell RSS feed.Wireless News CampaignFebruary 24, 2021
