        | Researchers discover 'weak spot' across major COVID-19 variants
 
 Researchers have discovered a key vulnerability across all major variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, including the recently emerged BA.1 and BA.2 Omicron subvariants. The weakness can be targeted by neutralizing antibodies, potentially paving the way for treatments that would be universally effective across variants.  https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2022/08/220818091240.htm

        | COVID-19 mutations accelerated by virus-fighting enzyme in human cells
 Researchers have found the first experimental evidence explaining why the COVID-19 virus produces variants, such as delta and omicron, so quickly.  The findings, published Sept. 13 in the journal Scientific Reports, could help scientists predict the emergence of new coronavirus strains and possibly even produce vaccines before those strains arrive.
 The relatively rapid emergence of multiple COVID-19 virus variants has baffled researchers because most coronaviruses don’t mutate and evolve so quickly. That’s because they possess a built-in “proofreading†mechanism to prevent mutations as they make copies of themselves while growing and multiplying in our cells.  But scientists at USC figured out the COVID-19 virus’ strategy for bypassing the proofreading: It hijacks enzymes within human cells that normally defend against viral infections, using those enzymes to alter its genome and make variants.
