Increasing the frequency of omicron variant mutations boosts the immune response and may reduce the virus virulence

The coronavirus has posed a serious threat to the world since its discovery in Wuhan in 2019. Beta, gamma, delta, and the final omicron variants have emerged as a result of several mutations in the virion structure. The Australian Omicron S protein variant contains 37 mutations out of a total of 67 mutations. According to preliminary data from South Africa, Omicron variant infection is not associated with any particular symptoms. The purpose of this research was to determine how changes in the structure of the S protein alter the protein's interaction with the ACE2 receptor. The Omicron variant stimulates the immune response more than the wild strain.
