主　　题：ACE2 maintain 

摘      要：The spike(S)protein of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant is highly mutated but the impact of these mutations on viral entry into cells and its inhibition by antibodies has been unclear.A recent study published in Science by Mannar et *** shows that these mutations are compatible with robust ACE2 binding and allow for efficient evasion of neutralizing *** emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants has become a hallmark of the COVID-19 *** of concern(VOC)harbor mutations in the viral S protein that can increase transmissibility,potentially by promoting S protein binding to the cellular receptor ACE2.
