  The Antigenicity of Epidemic SARS-CoV-2 Variants in the United Kingdom.
 PMID: 34220844       2021       Frontiers in immunology
Introduction: Since December 2020, the VOC-202012/01 (VOC-202012/01 variant, including multiple mutations 69-70del, 144/145del, N501Y, A570D, P681H, T716I, S982A, and D1118H) has been increasing rapidly.
Discussion: Eight of the 17 mutations in the VOC-202012/01 variant are located in the spike protein, including 69-70del, 144/145del, N501Y, A570D, P681H, T716I, S982A, and D1118H.
Discussion: Furthermore, as the P681H mutation is immediately adjacent to the Furin cleavage site, the proteolyt

Discussion: The set of signature variants includes 8 changes from S protein: deletion 69-70, deletion 144-145, N501Y (A23063T), A570D (C23271A), D614G, P681H (C23604A), T716I (C23709T), S982A (T24506G), D1118H (G24914C).


  Evolutionary insights into the furin cleavage sites of SARS-CoV-2 variants from humans and animals.
 PMID: 34258664       2021       Archives of virology
Discussion: Although the P681H mutation was the most prevalent FCS mutation in human SARS-CoV-2 isolates, it was also detected in different animal species, including dog (n = 3), cat (n = 2), monkey (n = 2), lion (n = 1), tiger (n = 1), and leopard (n = 1), as well as in environmental samples (n = 167), indicating that this mutation may have an impact on virus transmissibility and fitness.
Discussion: Deep analysis of SARS-CoV-2 S protein sequences revealed multiple substitutions, including S680P/F, P681H/R/S/L, R682G/Q/W, R683G/P, A684E/S/T/V, S686R, V687I, and A688S/V (Table 1

  Detection of Representative Mutant Strains and a Case of Prolonged Infection by SARS-CoV-2 with Spike 69/70 Deletion in Japan.
 PMID: 34267528       2021       Infection and drug resistance
Abstract: The mutants of the spike region of SARS-CoV-2, such as N501Y, E484K, P681H, and deletion H69/V70 (del 69/70), were studied in 25 COVID-19 patients admitted from December 2020 to April 2021; there were no patients with N501Y and P681H, but nine patients had E484K alone.
Introduction: However, the prevalence of other mutants, such as P681H and del69/70, is unknown.
Introduction: In the B1.1.7 lineage, P681H and deletion of H69/V70 (del 69/70) were also reported to be resistant to the anti-viral agent remdesivir and to have an allosterically changed

 PMID: 34288729       2021       Journal of clinical microbiology
Introduction: The B.1.1.7 variant has a number of mutations in the spike protein, including single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) resulting in N501Y, A570D, D614G, and P681H mutations and deletions at amino acids 69 and 70 and 144Y.

Result: Eighteen patients with this N440K replacement were identified, and 10 patients had the identical combination of spike amino acid replacements: L18R, T95I, R158S, N440K, D614G, P681H, A688V, S735A, and T1027I.
