Effect of the SARS-CoV-2 Delta-associated G15U mutation on the s2m element dimerization and its interactions with miR-1307-3p

Abstract: The stem loop 2 motif (s2m), a highly conserved 41-nucleotide hairpin structure in the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) genome, serves as an attractive therapeutic target that may have important roles in the virus life cycle or interactions with the host. However, the conserved s2m in Delta SARS-CoV-2, a previously dominant variant characterized by high infectivity and disease severity, has received relatively less attention than that of the original SARS-CoV-2 virus. The focus of t… Show more

“…In contrast to SARS-CoV-2 s2m, no long-range interaction that could serve to stabilize the backbone for a hinge point for an L-shaped kink was found. This result rationalizes observed differences in migration patterns in PAGE experiments, where the Delta s2m monomer band is slightly more mobile than the SARS-CoV-2 s2m monomer, suggestive of a difference in shape.…”
