SARS-CoV-2 evolution in the Omicron era
Abstract Since SARS-CoV-2 BA. 5 (Omicron) emerged and spread in 2022, Omicron
lineages have markedly diversified. Here we review the evolutionary trajectories and …

The SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody response to SD1 and its evasion by BA. 2.86
Under pressure from neutralising antibodies induced by vaccination or infection the SARS-
CoV-2 spike gene has become a hotspot for evolutionary change, leading to the failure of all …

Emerging variants develop total escape from potent monoclonal antibodies induced by BA. 4/5 infection
The rapid evolution of SARS-CoV-2 is driven in part by a need to evade the antibody
response in the face of high levels of immunity. Here, we isolate spike (S) binding …
