  6. By LOS ANGELES TIMES STAFF UPDATED JUNE 17, 9:39 A.M. PACIFIC 159,231 confirmed cases +48 today +3,444 yesterday 5,203 deaths +1 today +87 yesterday The coronavirus pandemic has spread rapidly across California. Experts say the true number of people infected is unknown and likely much higher than official tallies. To better understand the spread of the virus, The Times is conducting an independent, continual survey of dozens of local health agencies across the state. So far today, three of the 61 agencies we’re monitoring have reported new numbers. What we know Tallies continue to climb. Over the past week, the state has averaged 3,161 new cases and 64.7 new deaths per day. SoCal remains a hot spot. Los Angeles County has recorded 43% of new cases in the last two weeks, while home to only a quarter of the state's population. Hospitals are holding up. The number of patients remains steady, a goal of the stay-at-home policies. Testing is increasing. Numbers are rising. The state is hovering near its goal of 60,000 tests per day. The highest toll is among seniors. Roughly 78% of the dead were 65 or older. At least 2,613 were living at a nursing home. The state is gradually reopening. Most counties continue to ease restrictions. California's totals still sit far below New York, where more than 30,900 people have died.

Coronavirus can infect people so rapidly that government officials have issued shutdown orders aimed at slowing the growth of new cases and flattening this line.

For instance, some agencies do not report new totals on weekends, leading to lower numbers on those days. New cases by day Feb.MarchAprilMayJune01,0002,0003,0004,0007-dayaverage7-dayaverage Deaths by day Feb.MarchAprilMayJune0501007-dayaverage7-dayaverage The lines above are seven-day averages. They offer a more stable view of the trend than daily totals. That's why experts wait for lines like these to flatten before they say conditions are improving. The rate varies from county to county, but most areas are still reporting new cases every day. The chart below is adjusted to show how quickly new cases are being confirmed in each county. A good sign is when a line flattens, which indicates that transmission is slowing in that area.

Case counts are plotted on a logarithmic scale, which makes it easier to see when cases level off. Doubling rate is the estimate of how long it would take the county to double its number of cases, given the trend in the last week. Compare the slope of a county's curve to the slope of the guide lines to estimate its doubling rate at any point.

Thank you. Cases by county and city While initial outbreaks were centered in the San Francisco Bay Area, most new cases and deaths are now concentrated in Southern California. Officials are watching the latest figures as they weigh when and how to reopen. One metric is whether counties have kept new cases over the last 14 days to less than 25 per 100,000 residents. Currently, 25 of 58 counties pass the test. Metric CasesDeaths Time frame Last 14 daysCumulative Confirmed cases02907002,0502,4203,53017,950 Hover for more information.

Lives lost to COVID-19 Learn more about those we've lost by reading Times obituaries of Californians who have died from coronavirus. Reopening the state California is moving into the third stage of Gov. Gavin Newsom's four-phase plan to gradually reopen the state amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Newsom's roadmap for reopening Stage 1 March 19 - May 7 Strictest restrictions in place. Stage 2 Began May 8 Lower-risk businesses can reopen with social distancing guidelines. Advanced Stage 2: Retail and dine-in restaurants are reopened with social distancing guidelines Stage 3 Began June 12 Higher-risk businesses and venues (such as movie theaters and gyms) can reopen with social distancing guidelines. Stage 4 No date set Concerts, conventions and sports with a live crowd can reopen. All of California's 58 counties have moved into Stage 2, including Los Angeles County.

State and county totals come from a continual Times survey of California's 58 county health agencies as well as the three run by cities. Those figures are ahead of the totals periodically released by the state's Department of Public Health. State officials acknowledge that their tallies lag behind the updates posted by local agencies throughout the day and do not dispute The Times' method. The Times switched to using this method on March 18, leading to increases over what it had published previously using state data. The tallies here are mostly limited to residents of California, which is the standard method used to count patients by the state’s health authorities. Those totals do not include people from other states who are quarantined here, such as the passengers and crew of the Grand Princess cruise ship that docked in Oakland. In an effort to aid scientists and researchers in the fight against COVID-19, The Times has released its database of California coronavirus cases to the public. The database is available on Github, a popular website for hosting data and computer code. The files will be updated daily at github.com/datadesk/california-coronavirus-data. Closures and restrictions are drawn from an ongoing Times survey of county governments.

We therefore compared the functional properties of the S proteins with aspartic acid (SD614) and glycine (SG614) at residue 614. We observed that retroviruses pseudotyped with SG614 infected ACE2- expressing cells markedly more efficiently than those with SD614. This greater infectivity was correlated with less S1 shedding and greater incorporation of the S protein into the pseudovirion. Similar results were obtained using the virus-like particles produced with SARS-CoV-2 M, N, E, and S proteins. However, SG614 did not bind ACE2 more efficiently than SD614, and the pseudoviruses containing these S proteins were neutralized with comparable efficiencies by convalescent plasma. These results show SG614 is more stable than SD614, consistent with epidemiological data suggesting that viruses with SG614 transmit more efficiently. Until late 2019, only six coronaviruses were known to infect humans: HCoV-229E, HCoV-OC43, SARS-CoV (SARS-CoV-1), HCoV-NL63, CoV-HKU1, and MERS-CoV. A seventh, SARS-CoV-2, emerged in the winter of 2019 from Wuhan, China. SARS- CoV-2 is closely related to SARS-CoV-1, a virus that appeared from Guangdong province, China in late 2002. The coronavirus spike (S) protein mediates receptor binding and fusion of the viral and cellular membrane. The S protein extends from the viral membrane and is uniformly arranged as trimers on the virion surface to give the appearance of a crown (corona in Latin). The coronavirus S protein is divided into two domains: S1 and S2. The S1 domain mediates receptor binding, and the S2 mediates downstream membrane fusion1,2. The receptor for SARS-CoV-2 is angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)3-7, a metalloprotease that also serves as the receptor for SARS-CoV-18. A small, independently folded subdomain of S1, described as the receptor-binding domain (RBD), directly binds ACE2 when the virus engages a target cell9-12. The S1/S2 junction of SARS-CoV-2 is processed by a furin-like proprotein convertase in the virus producer cell. In contrast, the S1/S2 junction of SARS-CoV-1 is processed by TMPRSS2 at the cell surface or by lysosomal cathepsins in the target cells13-18. Both S proteins are further processed in the target cell within the S2 domain at the S2’ site, an event that is also required for productive infection19,20. Recent analyses of the fine-scale sequence variation of SARS-CoV-2 isolates identified several genomic regions of increased genetic variation21-30. One of these variations encodes a S-protein mutation, D614G, in the carboxy(C)-terminal region of the S1 domain21-23,26,30. This region of the S1 domain directly associates with S2 (Fig. 1a). This mutation with glycine at the residue 614 (G614) was previously detected to increase with an alarming speed21,22. Our own analysis of the S-protein sequences available from the GenBank showed a similar result: The G614 genotype was not detected in February (among 33 sequences) and observed at low frequency in March (26%), but increased rapidly by April (65%) and May (70%) (Fig. 1b), indicating a transmission advantage over viruses with D614. Korber et al. noted that this change also correlated with increased viral loads in COVID-19 patients22, but because this change is also associated with the mutations in viral nsp3 and RdRp proteins, the role of the S-protein in these observations remained undefined. To determine if the D614G mutation alters the properties of the S-protein in a way that could impact transmission or replication, we assessed its role in viral entry. Maloney murine leukemia virus (MLV)-based pseudoviruses (PVs), expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) and pseudotyped with the S protein of SARS-CoV-2 (SARS2) carrying the D614 or G614 genotype (SD614 and SG614, respectively) were produced from transfected HEK293T cells as previously described31. An SD614 variant, in which the furin-cleavage motif between the S1 and S2 domains is ablated (SFKO), was also included for comparison. HEK293T cells transduced to express human ACE2 (hACE2-293T) or those transduced with vector alone (Mock-293T) were infected with the same particle numbers of the PVs pseudotyped with the SD614, SG614, or SFKO (PVD614, PVG614, or PVFKO, respectively), and infection level was assessed one day later. We observed PVG614 infected hACE2-293T cells with approximately 9-fold higher efficiency than did PVD614 (Fig. 1c,d). This enhanced infectivity of PVG614 is not an artifact of PV titer normalization, as their titers are very similar (Extended Data Fig. 1). We next investigated the mechanism with which SG614 increased virus infectivity. Because S1 residue 614 is proximal to the S2 domain, we first compared the ratio between the S1 and S2 domains in the virion that might indicate altered release or shedding of the S1 domain after cleavage at the S1/S2 junction. To do so, we used S- protein constructs bearing Flag tags at both their amino (N)- and C-termini. PVs pseudotyped with these double-Flag tagged forms of SD614, SG614, and SFKO were partially purified and concentrated by pelleting through a 20% sucrose layer32 and evaluated for their infectivity. The titers of PVs were similar among PVG614, PVD614, and PVFKO before and after purification (Fig. 2a). In addition, modification by Flag-tags or pelleting of PVs through a sucrose layer did not alter the relative infectivity between PVG614 and PVD614 (Fig. 2b). We then determined their S1:S2 ratio by western blotting using the anti-Flag M2 antibody. As shown in Fig. 2c, the S1:S2 ratio is markedly greater in PVG614 compared to PVD614, indicating that glycine at residue 614 of SG614 stabilizes the interaction between the S1 and S2 domains, limiting S1 shedding. In addition, the total amount of the S protein in PVG614 is also much higher than that in PVD614, as indicated by a denser S2 band, even though the same number of pseudovirions was analyzed, as determined by quantitative PCR. To independently confirm that similar number of virions was analyzed, the lower part of the same membrane was blotted with an anti-p30 MLV gag antibody (Fig. 2c). Similar densities of p30 bands were observed from all PVs, indicating that differences in S-protein incorporation observed with PVG614 and PVD614 were due to the mutation of residue 614, not by different amount of PVs analyzed. A similar experiment performed with independently produced PVs yielded a nearly identical result (Extended Data Fig. 2a). Densitometric analysis shows there is 4.7 times more S1+S2 band in PVG614 compared to PVD614 (Fig. 2d). To more accurately estimate the S1:S2 ratio, we next compared different amount of the same samples so that S2-band intensity in PVG614 and PVD614 was comparable (Fig. 2e). Averages of several quantification show that the S1:S2 ratio of PVG614 is 3.5 times higher than that of PVD614 (Fig. 2f). The M2 antibody used in this experiment binds the Flag tag located at both the N- and C-termini of a protein, but it binds N-terminal Flag tag more efficiently33. Therefore, we directly visualized virion S-protein bands by silver staining (Extended Data Fig. 2b). Although the S2 bands are masked by a same-sized MLV protein, S1 bands are well separated. Again, the intensity of the S1 band of PVG614 is much stronger than that of PVD614, while p30 bands are comparable, a result consistent with those observed using the anti-Flag M2 antibody. We next confirmed these findings using virus-like particles (VLPs) composed only of the native SARS-CoV-2 proteins, the nucleoprotein (N), membrane protein (M), envelope protein (E), and S protein34. VLPs were partially purified and analyzed in the same way as MLV PVs. The S protein bands were detected with the anti-Flag M2 antibody, and the N protein with pooled convalescent plasma derived from COVID-19 patients. The S1:S2 ratio and total S protein on the virion was again much higher in the VLPs carrying SG614 (VLPG614) compared to those carrying SD614 (VLPD614) (Fig. 3a). The S1:S2 ratio is 3.4 fold higher and the total S protein is nearly five fold enriched in VLPG614 compared to VLPD614 (Fig. 3b,c). Thus, the D614G mutation enhances virus infection through two related mechanisms: It reduces S1 shedding and increases total S protein incorporated into the virion. It has previously been speculated that D614G mutation promotes an open configuration of the S protein that is more favorable to ACE2 association5,22,23,35. To explore this possibility, we investigated whether ACE2 binding by SG614 was more efficient than that by SD614. HEK293T cells transfected to express each S protein were assessed for their binding of hACE2 immunoadhesin, using hACE2-NN-Ig, whose enzymatic activity was abolished by mutation31. hACE2-NN-Ig bound SARS-CoV-1 RBD with an equivalent affinity as hACE2-Ig. These S proteins are fused to a C-terminal, but not an N-terminal Flag tag, thus allowing for the measurement of total S protein expression in permeabilized cells by flow cytometry. Although total S protein expression was comparable, hACE2-NN-Ig binding to the cells expressing SG614 was substantially higher than its binding to cells expressing SD614 (Fig. 4a). This observation has several explanations. First, G614 could increase hACE2 association by promoting greater exposure of the RBD, or second, this mutation could increase the number of binding sites by limiting S1-domain shedding. To differentiate these possibilities, we appended the Myc-tag to the N-terminus of the S-protein that is Flag tagged at its C-terminus and repeated the study, this time detecting the S1 domain with an anti-Myc antibody. As shown in Fig. 4b, the ratio of Myc-tag to Flag-tag is higher in cells expressing SG614 than in cells expressing SD614. However, the Myc-tag/Flag-tag ratio is similar to the hACE2- NN-Ig/Flag-tag ratio, indicating that increased hACE2 binding to the SG614-expressing cells did not result from increased affinity of SG614 spikes to hACE2 or greater access to the RBD. Instead, these data show there is more S1 domain in the SG614-expressing cells, a result again consistent with the observation that the D614G mutation reduces S1 shedding. We then assessed whether differential amount of the S protein could influence neutralization sensitivity of the virus. Fig. 4c shows that PVD614 and PVG614 are similarly susceptible to neutralizing antisera, indicating that antibody-mediated control of viruses carrying SD614 and SG614 would be similar. It has also been speculated that the D614G mutation would promote, not limit, shedding of the S1 domain, based on the hypothetical loss of a hydrogen bond between D614 in S1 and T859 in S222. An alternative explanation, more consistent with the data presented here, is that Q613 forms a hydrogen bond with T859, and the greater backbone flexibility provided by introduction of glycine at an adjacent position 614 enables a more favorable orientation of Q613. It is also possible that D614 can form an intra-domain salt bridge with R646, promoting a local S1 conformation unfavorable to its association with S2. In this model, replacing aspartic acid with glycine at the position 614 would prevent sampling of this unfavorable configuration. The instability of SD614 may also account for the observed lower level of incorporation of the functional S protein into PVs and VLPs. Specifically, the S-protein trimers with the exposed S2 domains, as a result of S1 shedding, could destabilize the trans-Golgi network membrane, the site of processing of the S1/S2 boundary, and such disruption may impede S-protein incorporation into the virion. In case of VLPs, this disruption would presumably further interfere with appropriate M- and N-protein associations by altering the conformation and orientation of the S-protein membrane-proximal regions. Alternatively, these S-protein trimers with the exposed S2 domains may serve as poor substrates for downstream post-translational modifications including palmitoylation, and those lacking proper modifications might be unsuitable for virion incorporation. An interesting question is why viruses carrying the more stable SG614 appear to be more transmissible without resulting in a major observable difference in disease severity22,27. It is possible that higher levels of functional S protein observed with SG614 increase the chance of host-to-host transmission, but that other factors limit the rate and efficiency of intra-host replication. Alternatively, the loss of virion-associated S proteins observed with SD614 may be compensated by greater fusion efficiency with the destabilized S protein when the next target cell is adjacent in a host tissue. It is also possible that our ability to detect sequence changes at this early stage of the pandemic is simply greater than our ability to detect modest differences in pathogenesis. The strong phenotypic difference we observe here between D614 and G614 suggests that more study on the impact of the D614G mutation on the course of disease is warranted. Finally, our data raise interesting questions about the natural history of SARS-CoV-2 as it moved presumably from horseshoe bats to humans. At some point in this process, the virus acquired a furin-cleavage site, allowing its S1/S2 boundary to be cleaved in virus- producing cells. In contrast, the S1/S2 boundary of SARS-CoV-1, and indeed all SARS- like viruses isolated from bats, lack this polybasic site and are cleaved by TMPRSS2 or endosomal cathepsins in the target cells13-20. Thus the greater stability we observe with SG614 would not be relevant to viruses lacking this site, but it appears to be strongly favored when a furin-cleavage site is present. Therefore, the D614G mutation may have emerged to compensate for this newly acquired furin site. In summary, we show that an S protein mutation that results in more transmissible SARS-CoV-2 also limits shedding of the S1 domain and increases S-protein incorporation into the virion. Further studies will be necessary to determine the impact of this change on the nature and severity of COVID-19.

Methods SARS-CoV-2 S protein sequences analysis. To track D614G variation among SARS- CoV-2 isolates, S protein sequences were downloaded from GenBank and separated by the month. Genotype frequency at residue 614 was calculated using R (R Foundation for Statistical Computing) with the Biostrings package. Logo plots of D614G variation were generated by WebLogo after sequence alignment. Total number of sequences analyzed for each month is indicated in the Fig. 1 legend. MLV PV production, quantification, and infection. MLV PVs were produced by transfecting HEK293T cells at ~60% confluency in T175 flasks using the calcium- phosphate method with 70 µg of total DNA. The ratio of 5:5:1 by mass was used for the retroviral vector pQCXIX encoding green fluorescence protein (GFP) or firefly luciferase (FLuc), a plasmid expressing MLV gag and pol proteins, and a plasmid expressing the S protein of SARS-CoV-2 or VSV G protein. The plasmid expressing VSV G protein was previously reported31. SARS-CoV-2 S protein gene used in the production of MLV PVs was codon-optimized and synthesized by Integrated DNA Technologies based on the protein sequence (GenBank YP_009724390). The S protein gene is fused to the Flag tag sequence (DYKDDDDK) either at its C-terminus or at both the N- and C-termini, as indicated in each experiment. PV-containing culture supernatants were collected at 43 h post transfection, cleared through 0.45 µm filters, and either purified or aliquoted and frozen at -80°C immediately. PV titers were quantified by RT-qPCR, using primers and a probe that target the CMV promoter. Sense primer: 5’-TCACGGGGATTTCCAAGTCTC-3’, anti-sense primer: 5’-AATGGGGCGGAGTTGTTACGAC-3’, probe: 5’- AAACAAACTCCCATTGACGTCA-3’. Viral RNA was extracted with Trizol (Life Technologies) and GlycoBlue coprecipitant (Invitrogen) and reverse transcribed using the High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Applied Biosystems). qPCR was performed using Luna Universal Probe qPCR Master Mix (New England Biolabs) with the known quantity of pQCXIX vector to generate standard curves. Infection assays were performed by spinoculating (at 2,100 x g for 30 min at 10°C) PVs onto the Mock- and hACE2-293T cells seeded on multiwell plates. Spinoculated plates were incubated for 2 h in a CO2 incubator and medium was replaced with DMEM containing 10% FBS. Infection levels were assessed 24 h post infection by measuring GFP expression by Accuri flow cytometer or luciferase activity using the Luc-Pair Firefly Luciferase HS Assay Kit (GeneCopoeia). Analyses of the S protein incorporated into MLV PV. For the analyses of the S protein in the virion, PVs were partially purified. 9 ml of cleared culture supernatants containing PVs (20 ml/T175) were loaded onto 2 ml of 20% sucrose in PBS and centrifuged at 30,000 rpm in the SW41 rotor for 2 h at 10°C32. PV pellets were resuspended in 30-50 µl NT buffer (120 mM NaCl, 20 mM Tris, pH8.0). Purified PVs were immediately used or aliquoted and frozen at -80°C. For western blot analyses, 5-10 µl of purified PV, which is equivalent to 0.5-1.0 x 1010 vector genomes, was loaded per lane of the 4-12% Bis-Tris gel (Life Technologies), transferred to the PVDF membrane, and blotted with 1 µg/ml anti-Flag M2 antibody (Sigma-Aldrich, F1804) to detect the S-protein bands. 1 µg/ml anti-p30 MLV gag antibody (Abcam, ab130757) and 1:10,000 dilution of goat-anti- mouse IgG-HRP polyclonal antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 115-036-062) were used to detect MLV gag protein as an internal control. Band intensities were measured, using Image Lab software (Bio-Rad). To increase the accuracy of this measurement, the same blots were analyzed several times at different exposures. For silver staining, 30 µl of purified PVs were separated by the 4-12% Bis-Tris gel and stained with Silver Stain Plus (Bio-Rad). VLP production and S-protein analysis. SARS-CoV-2 VLPs were produced by transfecting HEK293T cells at ~60% confluency in T75 flasks with 25 µg total DNA using the calcium phosphate method as previously described with a modification34. The plasmids expressing SARS-CoV-2 M, N, E, and S proteins were transfected at a ratio of 1:5:5:1. The codon-optimized M, N, and E protein genes were synthesized based on the GenBank protein sequences, YP_009724393, YP_009724397, and YP_009724392, respectively. VLPs were harvested 43 h post transfection from the culture supernatants, cleared by 0.45 µm filtration, and partially purified by pelleting through a 20% sucrose layer as were MLV PVs. VLP pellets were resuspended in 30 µl of NT buffer, and the entire amount was loaded on the 4-12% Bis-Tris gel for WB analyses. As with MLV PV, the S-protein bands were visualized using the anti-Flag M2 antibody, and the N-protein band was detected using pooled convalescent plasma at a 1:500 dilution and 10 ng/ml goat-anti-human IgG antibody conjugated with polymerized HRP (Fitzgerald, 61R- I166AHRP40). Cell-surface expression and analysis of the S protein. HEK293T cells, approximately 80% confluent in 6-well plates were transfected with 8 µl PEI 40,000 (Polysciences) and 2 µg plasmid expressing the indicated S protein variant. For ACE2-NN-Ig binding experiments, the S protein constructs with the Flag tag only at the C-terminus, and for the measurement of total S1, those with N-terminal Myc tag (EQKLISEEDL) and C-terminal Flag tag (DYKDDDDK) are used. All tags are fused with a two-glycine (GG) linker. To measure ACE2-binding ability or the level of the S1 domain present on the cell surface, cells were detached two days post transfection with Accutase (Stemcell Technologies Inc.) and incubated with either 1 µg/ml purified hACE2-NN-Ig or anti-Myc antibody (clone 9E10, National Cell Culture Center, Minneapolis, MN), respectively, on ice. hACE2-NN-Ig was previous described and was purified using Protein A-Sepharose CL- 4B (GE Healthcare)31. To measure the total level of S protein, cells were permeabilized with PBS including 0.5% Triton X-100 (Sigma-Aldrich) at room temperature for 10 min and incubated with 1 µg/ml anti-Flag M2 antibody (Sigma-Aldrich). Neutralization assay with human immune plasma. Deidentified blood samples were obtained by the Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Specialists of South Florida, LLC for COVID-­‐19 serotyping, and exempt from human subject research under 45 CFR 45.101(b)(4). MLV PVs encoding firefly luciferase and pseudotyped with the indicated SARS-CoV-2 S protein were preincubated for 1 h at 37°C with or without convalescent or healthy plasma serially diluted in DMEM containing 10% FBS. Mock- and hACE2- HEK293T cells on 96-well plates were infected with the preincubation mixes and infection levels were assessed 24 h later by measuring luciferase activity using the Luc- Pair Firefly Luciferase HS Assay Kit (GeneCopoeia).

  9. Mutated coronavirus shows significant boost in infectivity COVID-19-causing viral variant taking over in the United States and Europe now carries more functional, cell-binding spikes. June 12, 2020 Additional Resources Access the full study Video: Addressing the Coronavirus Challenge Learn more about coronavirus work at Scripps Research JUPITER, FL — A tiny genetic mutation in the SARS coronavirus 2 variant circulating throughout Europe and the United States significantly increases the virus’ ability to infect cells, lab experiments performed at Scripps Research show. “Viruses with this mutation were much more infectious than those without the mutation in the cell culture system we used,” says Scripps Research virologist Hyeryun Choe, PhD, senior author of the study. The mutation had the effect of markedly increasing the number of functional spikes on the viral surface, she adds. Those spikes are what allow the virus to bind to and infect cells. “The number—or density—of functional spikes on the virus is 4 or 5 times greater due to this mutation,” Choe says. The spikes give the coronavirus its crown-like appearance and enable it to latch onto target cell receptors called ACE2. The mutation, called D614G, provides greater flexibility to the spike’s “backbone,” explains co-author Michael Farzan, PhD, co-chairman of the Scripps Research Department of Immunology and Microbiology. More flexible spikes allow newly made viral particles to navigate the journey from producer cell to target cell fully intact, with less tendency to fall apart prematurely, he explains. “Our data are very clear, the virus becomes much more stable with the mutation,” Choe says. There has been much debate about why COVID-19 outbreaks in Italy and New York have so quickly overwhelmed health systems, while early outbreaks in places like San Francisco and Washington state proved more readily managed, at least initially. Was it something about those communities and their response, or had the virus somehow changed? All viruses acquire minute genetic changes as they reproduce and spread. Those changes rarely impact fitness or ability to compete. The SARS-CoV-2 variant that circulated in the earliest regional outbreaks lacked the D614G mutation now dominating in much of the world. But was that because of the so-called “founder effect,” seen when a small number of variants fan out into a wide population, by chance? Choe and Farzan believe their biochemical experiments settle the question. “There have been at least a dozen scientific papers talking about the predominance of this mutation,” Farzan says. “Are we just seeing a ‘founder effect?’ Our data nails it. It is not the founder effect.” Choe and Farzan’s paper is titled “The D614G mutation in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein reduces S1 shedding and increases infectivity.” Now undergoing peer review, it is being posted prior to publication to the pre-print site bioRxiv, and released early, amid news reports of its findings. Choe and Farzan note that their research was performed using harmless viruses engineered to produce key coronavirus proteins. Whether the changes they observed also translate to increased transmissibility in the real world requires additional epidemiological studies, they note. Encouragingly, the duo found that immune factors from the serum of infected people work equally well against engineered viruses both with and without the D614G mutation. That’s a hopeful sign that vaccine candidates in development will work against variants with or without that mutation, Choe says. Choe and Farzan have studied coronaviruses for nearly 20 years, since the first outbreak of SARS, a similar virus. They were the first to discover in 2003 that SARS bound to the ACE2 receptor on cells. Others’ experiments have shown the SARS-CoV-2 virus binds the same ACE2 receptor. But Farzan and Choe note a key structural difference between spike proteins on the first SARS virus and this new pandemic strain. With both, under an electron microscope, the spike has tripod shape, with its three segments bound together at a backbone-like scaffold. But SARS-CoV-2 is different. Its tripod is divided in two discreet segments, S1 and S2. Initially, this unusual feature produced unstable spikes, Farzan says. Only about a quarter of the hundreds of spikes on each SARS-CoV-2 virus maintain the structure they need to successfully infect a target cell. With the mutation, the tripod breaks much less frequently, meaning more of its spikes are fully functional, he says. The addition of the D614G mutation means that the amino acid at that location is switched from aspartic acid to glycine. That renders it more bendable, Farzan says. Evidence of its success can be seen in the sequenced strains that scientists globally are contributing to databases including GenBank, the duo reports. In February, no sequences deposited to the GenBank database showed the D614G mutation. But by March, it appeared in 1 out of 4 samples. In May, it appeared in 70 percent of samples, Farzan says. “Over time, it has figured out how to hold on better and not fall apart until it needs to,” Farzan says. “The virus has, under selection pressure, made itself more stable.” It is still unknown whether this small mutation affects the severity of symptoms of infected people, or increases mortality, the scientists say. While ICU data from New York and elsewhere reports a preponderance of the new D614G variant, much more data, ideally under controlled studies, are needed, Choe says. In addition to senior authors Choe and Farzan, the authors include first authors Lizhou Zhang, Cody Jackson and Huihui Mou, plus co-authors Amrita Ojha, Erumbi Rangarajan and Tina Izard, all of Scripps Research.
