During their study, researchers from the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom and the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research in Germany noted that their findings confirm that getting rid of the virus completely from the body of an infected person may be more difficult.
The two studies, published in the journal Nature Communications and transmitted by “Bold Sky”, show how the virus can clearly evolve in different types of cells, and how it adapts to the immunity of the infected person.
The researchers verified the function of the pocket that is formed in the virus protein during the virus infection cycle, stressing that this pocket that the virus uses to enter and infect cells, played a key role in viral infection.
For his part, Professor Emery Berger from the University of Bristol, said that with the emergence of a continuous series of variants to replace the original Corona virus around the world, the pocket that was discovered in the virus protein remained unchanged.
As for the head of the research team, Kapil Gupta, he confirmed that the results of studies showed that a person can carry several different types of viruses in his body, and that some of these variables may use kidney or spleen cells as a suitable place to hide, while the body is busy defending once morest the dominant type of virus. Which may make it difficult for infected patients to get rid of Corona completely.
Despite the unpromising results presented by the two studies, the researchers themselves noted that the virus’s pocket property itself may provide a unique opportunity to defeat it, as it is completely protected by an antiviral molecule that blocks this discovered pocket.
