This study examines how recurrent spike mutations in SARS-CoV-2 JN.1 sublineages affect immune evasion, ACE2 affinity, and infectivity, identifying growth advantages in specific sublineages.

This study compares the antibody evasion, ACE2 binding, and infectivity of SARS-CoV-2 BA.2.87.1 with EG.5.1 and JN.1, finding BA.2.87.1 has lower immune evasion and reduced infectivity.

The paper analyzes antibody neutralization data from multiple countries to assess how prior exposure to SARS-CoV-2 variants affects neutralization profiles of BA.2.86 and its descendants.
