    Some of the most valuable info is going to come from sorting out the parallels btwn SC1 and SC2. It's ironic that two KEY pieces surfaced in the past few weeks- the hubel civet viruses and the BANAL bat viruses. With SC1 and a littleelbow grease you'll see the adaptions from bat to civet to human and then human to human. With SC2 we'll have all the same genomes except the intermediate host (and I think a good assumption that there is one). In both SC1 andSC2 you've got highly similar N-glycan changes in the NTD followed by very similar and specific RBD changes. It's possible the NTD changes opened the door for the RBD changes. Put the FCS aside - nobody did these previouslyundiagnosed NTD and RBD changes by design.

    Yup, all important points Bob. As for the glycans - do you have the coordinates?

    I'm done with my Zoom calls so I'll focus on this for the rest of the day/night.

    For SC2 to laos bat 52 its N 30, 74 and 370.

    I'd love to know what a 'human specific furin cleavage site' is.

    It's not "PRRAR", that's for sure.

    @Robert Garry - I'm using NetNGlyc and since N-linked glycans are easy to predict I think I have what I need

    for sc1 the ones I have my eye on are N 29, 73 and maybe 227
