Scientists have recognized that the coronavirus has mutated

In the genetic sequence of the novel coronavirus have discovered a human protein in the place where the regulated possibility of entering a human cell.

As reported in the article of biomedical Sciences, ELife, this suggests that the virus gradually mutates and adapts to the human body, which may hinder the response.

To such conclusion scientists from Cambridge University, examining the detected insertion of eight amino acids.

«SARS-CoV-2 has acquired a unique sequence small inset plot S1/S2 (gurinova insert, which is responsible for the entrance to the cage)», the study says.

During the propagation inside the cell the virus gets to work the same human protein, which also depend on this protease. This violates a water-salt exchange in the field of infection and leads to swelling in the lungs and other organs.
