摘要
Molecular determinants of SARS-CoV-2 replication fitness and sensitivity to neutralization via the humoral immune response critically inform efforts to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.Work published recently by Plante et al.in Nature highlights a key role for the D614G variant of the viral spike glycoprotein(S protein)in these processes.
