New SARS-CoV-2 variant VUI 202012/01 started in the UK and currently spreading in Europe and Australia during the last few days. The new variant bears about nine mutations in the spike protein (Δ69-70, Δ145, N501Y, A570D, D614G, P681H, T716I, S982A, and D1118H). The N501Y lies in the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the spike and interacts with the host-cell receptor ACE2 responsible for viral recognition and entry. We tried to simulate the system of ACE2-SARS-CoV-2 spike RBD in the wildtype and mutated isoform of the RBD (N501Y). Additionally, the GRP78 association with the ACE2-SARS-CoV-2 spike RBD is modeled at the presence of this mutant variant of the viral spike.
