Scientific Background: Novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has caused the pandemic of the respiratory diseases (COVID-19) around the world in 2020 (1). The spike glycoprotein (S) of coronavirus, a type I transmembrane protein containing two subunits, S1 and S2 is known to bind with host cells through the interaction with angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) (2). Upon binding of S1subunit of Spike protein to the host ACE2, TMPRSS2 cleaves at the S1/S2 boundary or within S2 subunit to facilitate the entry of viral genomes into the host cells. Of the 14 defined mutations in the UK variant of SARS-CoV-2, also known as VUI-2020/01 or lineage B.1.1.7, P618H mutation in the Spike protein is found adjacent to the furin cleavage site rendering it more suitable for hydrolysis by TMPRSS2 and augmenting the viral fusion (3).
