  Precision Response to the Rise of the SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.7 Variant of Concern by Combining Novel PCR Assays and Genome Sequencing for Rapid Variant Detection and Surveillance.
 PMID: 34378966       2021       Microbiology spectrum
Introduction: For example, B.1.1.7 is characterized by a number of mutations in the S gene, including the H69/V70 and Y144 deletions, N501Y, and P681H, among a number of other changes.


  Characterization of the emerging B.1.621 variant of interest of SARS-CoV-2.
 PMID: 34403832       2021       Infection, genetics and evolution
Abstract: This strategy allowed us to identify the emergence of the B.1.621 lineage, considered a variant of
Introduction: In this study, we reported the emergence and spread of the novel B.1.621 lineage of SARS-CoV-2, a new VOI with the insertion 146 N and several amino acid substitutions in the Spike protein (Y144T, Y145S, R346K, E484K, N501Y and P681H).
Discussion: Conversely, the P681H substitution in the S1/S2 furin cleavage site, although increase spike cleavage by furin-like proteases does not significantly impact viral entry or cell-cell spread in vitro (Ord et al., 2020) neither with higher infection rate or higher prevalence.

Result: It shares mutation P681H with B.1.1.7, which may represent an independent homogeneity of the UK strain.
Result: Third, mutation P681H is located near the insertion sites of four amino acids, connecting S1 and S2 subunits in S protein, in other words, adjacent to the furin cleavage site, which may cause S protein to be more easily cleaved by the protease, thereby, enhancing its affinity with the ACE2 receptor and promoting the virus to enter respiratory epithelial cells.

 PMID: 34424256       2021       JMIRx med
Result: Furthermore, the P681H mutation of the S protein might influence the cleavage of the S protein due to its proximity to the S1/S2 furin cleavage site.


  Epitope diversity of SARS-CoV-2 hyperimmune intravenous human immunoglobulins and neutralization of variants of concern.
 PMID: 34430803       2021       iScience
Method: Antibody preparations were evaluated by SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus neutralization assay (PsVNA) using WA-1 strain, UK variant (B.1.1.7 with spike mutations: H69-V70del, Y144del, N501Y, A570D, D614G, P681H, T716I, S982A, and D1118H), SA variant (B.1.351 strain with spike mutations L18F, D80A, D215G, L242-244del, R246I, K417N, E484K, N501Y, D614G, and

Method: B.1.1.7: H69 deletion, V70 deletion, Y144deletion, N501Y, A570D, D614G, P681H, T716I, S982A, D1118H.


  Molecular Epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 in Diverse Environmental Samples Globally.
 PMID: 34442775       2021       Microorganisms
Abstract: However, the key mutations-N501Y (44.6%), S982A (44.4%), A570D (43.3%), T716I (40.4%), and P681H (40.1%) were also recorded in spike protein.
Result: N501Y and P681H are key mutations in the alpha variant.
Result: The most common amino acid substitutions were D614G (83.4%) followed by N501Y (44.6%), S982A (44.4%), A570D (43.3%), T716I (40.4%), and P681H (40.1%) in Spike (S) protein.


  Novel Nested-Seq Approach for SARS-CoV-2 Real-Time Epidemiology and In-Depth Mutational Profiling in Wastewater.
 PMID: 34445204       2021       International journal of molecular sciences
Result: According to the % frequencies of the genetic markers A570D (23271C>A), D614G (23403A>G), P681H (23604C>A), T716I (23709C>T), S982A (24506T>G), and D1118H (24914GG>C), the Beta.1.1.7/alpha lineage VOC was detected in 80.6% +- 8.3 (mean +- SE), (median of 80.8%) of the total sequencing reads.


  Emergence and spread of the potential variant of interest (VOI) B.1.1.519 of SARS-CoV-2 predominantly present in Mexico.
 PMID: 34448936       2021       Archives of virology
Introduction: A phylogenomic analysis of genomic sequences using the Nextstrain tool showed that the viruses in the lineage B.1.1.519 (B.1.1.1.222+T478K+P681H+T732A) group independently of the lineage B.1.1.222 sequences, strongly suggesting that this variant should be classified as a variant of interest (VOI).
Introduction: Finally, two variants with interesting features were identified in this study: first, 13 sequences belonging to the B.1.1.222 lineage without the T478K mutation, but harboring the T732A mutation and the 69-70 deletion in the spike protein, the latter being a characteristic mutation of the B.1.1.7 VOC first detected in the UK; and second, 11 sequences corresponding to four lineages differing from B.1.1.519 (

  Predominance of the SARS-CoV-2 Lineage P.1 and Its Sublineage P.1.2 in Patients from the Metropolitan Region of Porto Alegre, Southern Brazil in March 2021.
 PMID: 34451453       2021       Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland)
Discussion: Additionally, B.1.1.7 carries the P681H substitution in the furin-cleavage site and multiple VOIs bear the L452R substitution.
