EPIDEMIOLOGIA GENOMICA DELLE PRINCIPALI VARIANTI DI SARS-COV-2 CIRCOLANTI IN ITALIA PRIMA E DURANTE L'ERA OMICRON
… CIRCULATING IN ITALY BEFORE AND DURING THE OMICRON ERA Introduction Since the beginning of the pandemic, SARS-CoV-2 has shown a great genomic variability, resulting in the continuous emergence of new variants that has made their global monitoring and study a priority. Phylodynamic analysis, …

Virus from the Global South: A comparative analysis on Twitter commentary on China x Covid-19, and South Africa x Omicron
… in South Africa. This variant was named Omicron and is considered a variant of concern by the WHO. In response, various countries from the Global North initiated travel bans for several southern African countries. Despite initial cases only being identified in South Africa and Botswana, …

Computational Analysis of Antibody Binding Mechanisms to the Omicron RBD of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein: Identification of Epitopes and Hotspots for Developing Effective Therapeutic Strategies
<p>The advent of the Omicron strain of SARS-CoV-2 has elicited apprehension regarding its potential influence on the effectiveness of current vaccines and antibody treatments. The present investigation involved the implementation of mutational scanning analyses to examine the impact of Omicron …

Study of a short distance top mass with a cross-section at NNLL + NNLO
… to next-to-next-to-leading-logarithmic order + [Omicron] [alpha] 2/[sigma](NNLL+NNLO), which goes beyond previous next-to-leading-logarithmic + [Omicron] [alpha] 2/[sigma] (NLL+NLO) analysis. We use the two-loop heavy quark jet-function, [Omicron] [alpha] 2/[sigma] corrections to the partonic …

Evolution-dependent SARS-CoV-2 vaccination success determined by neutralizing antibodies and reliability of point-of-care testing
… and the variants of concern Alpha, Delta, Omicron BA.1, and Omicron BA.2. Moreover, we established a Vero cell-based virus neutralization test to validate various diagnostic systems and to estimate vaccination success. Since RT-qPCR tests were not sufficient for mass testing, point-of-care …

Aptamers that bind SARS-CoV-2 spike protein for COVID-19 rapid diagnostics and therapeutics
… of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern, including the Omicron variant, which has enhanced infectivity and immune invasion. Improved rapid tests can limit viral spread by informing individuals of their infection status for personal risk assessment as well as disease surveillance. To that end, DNA …

A discrete-time waning immunity model for the spread of an immune escape pathogen
… (antigenically evolving) pathogen, such as the Omicron lineage of SARS-CoV-2, and investigates the possibility of such models in generating sustained or relatively large amplitudes of damped oscillations in infections. The classic Susceptible-Infectious-Immune-Susceptible (SIRS) model is a …

X-ray and spectroscopic studies of organotin compounds.
… and 3-C-(dibutyliodostannyl)methyl-l,2:5,6-di-Omicron-isopropylidene-alpha-D-allofuranose (3). In methyl 4,6-Omicron-benzylidene-3-deoxy-3-triphenylstannyl-alpha-D-altro-pyranoside, the bond angles about tin are close to tetrahedral; however, there are two non-bonding Sn---0 distances of ca 3.2 …

Using proxy markers from routine diagnostic PCR testing to assess the disease severity of new SARS-CoV-2 variants
… is from high income countries. And while the Omicron variant (B.1.1.529, sub-lineages BA.1 and BA.2) has been associated with a reduced risk of severe disease, it is uncertain whether this is caused by a decrease in variant virulence or by higher levels of population immunity. Methods We used …

Bayesian inference of stochastic dynamical models
… geometry, one uncertain model parameter, and [Omicron](105) uncertain state variables is achieved for the first. Successful joint inference of an uncertain stochastic dynamical equation and [Omicron](105) uncertain state variables is achieved for the second. Extensions to adaptive modeling and …

Disruption and The Space Between: Staging The Tao of the World in Precarious Times
… this piece with a specific focus on: (1) how the Omicron variant of COVID-19 affected the rehearsal process; (2) the role of disruption as a tool to challenge assumptions and prompt creative thinking; and (3) the liminal space between Asian and Western cultures and between logical and creative …

Spike Processing and Protease Usage Effects on SARS-CoV-2 Pathogenesis
… that the integrity of the FCS is necessary. Omicron CTS1 mutants YKH (H655Y, N679K, and P681H) and N679K demonstrated the interplay between mutations with different contributions and expanded on the impact of post translational modifications. These studies show that alterations to any of …

Studies on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type -2 in Northern South Africa
… SARS-CoV-2 full genomes were analyzed. Delta and Omicron variants were detected as early as January and February 2021, respectively, while the Beta variant was detected in July 2021. Delta variant was significantly predominant at a prevalence of 45%, followed by Omicron (32%), and Beta (5%). …
