Within-host diversity of SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19 patients with variable disease severities
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
Background: The ongoing pandemic of SARS-COV-2 has already infected more than eight million people worldwide. The majority of COVID-19 patients are either asymptomatic or have mild symptoms. Yet, about 15% of the cases ...
Host genetic variants potentially associated with SARS-CoV-2: A multi-population analysis
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
Background: Clinical outcomes of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) showed enormous inter-individual and inter-population differences, possibly ...
Nanopore Sequencing SARS-CoV-2 genome in Qatar
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
Background: The current pandemic, COVID-19, is cause by an RNA coronavirus that was recently identified as SARS-CoV-2. RNA viruses tend to have a high mutation rate; the rate is around a million times greater than that of ...
Evaluation of reverse transcription-loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) for detecting SARS-CoV-2 in clinical, environmental and animal samples.
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
Background: First described 20 years ago by Notomi et al., the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay is robust, rapid and straightforward, yet retains high sensitivity and specificity. These features have ...
Virtual screening of anti-viral drugs and natural compounds for potential inhibition of the novel SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor-binding domain
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
Background: The spike (S) protein of SARS-CoV-2 harbors the receptor-binding domain (RBD) that mediates the virus's entry to host cells. The aim of this study was to identify novel inhibitors that target the RBD domain of ...
