The interactions between C8H17(OC2H4)nSO4Na (C8E.S; n=0, 1, 3) andC8H17NC6H5Br(C8Py), C8EnS and CmH2m+2NC5H5Br (CmPy; m=10, 12, 14, 16), t-C8H17C6H4(OC2H4)9.8SO4Na (C8φE9.8S) and cmPy in micelles have been studied by...The interactions between C8H17(OC2H4)nSO4Na (C8E.S; n=0, 1, 3) andC8H17NC6H5Br(C8Py), C8EnS and CmH2m+2NC5H5Br (CmPy; m=10, 12, 14, 16), t-C8H17C6H4(OC2H4)9.8SO4Na (C8φE9.8S) and cmPy in micelles have been studied bysuxface tension method. The partial ternary "phase diagram" of C8EnS-C8Py-H2O andC8EnS-C12Py-H2O systems have been obtained. The results show that with the increaseof n, the interaction between C8EnS and C8Py decreases and the stability of aqueous so-lution of C8EnS-C8Py increases. With the increase of m, the interaction between C8E3Sand CmPy increases and the stability of aqueous solution of C8E3S-CmPy decreases. Theinteraction between C8φE9.8S and CmPy is strong while the aqueous so1ution of C8φE9.8S-C.Py is still very stable.展开更多

Here, we identified 45 point mutations that Omicron acquired since divergence from the B.1.1 lineage. We found that the Omicron spike protein sequence was subjected to stronger positive selection than that of any reported SARS-CoV-2 variants known to evolve persistently in human hosts, suggesting a possibility of hostjumping. The molecular spectrum of mutations(i.e., the relative frequency of the 12 types of base substitutions) acquired by the progenitor of Omicron was significantly different from the spectrum for viruses that evolved in human patients but resembled the spectra associated with virus evolution in a mouse cellular environment. Furthermore, mutations in the Omicron spike protein significantly overlapped with SARS-CoV-2 mutations known to promote adaptation to mouse hosts, particularly through enhanced spike protein binding affinity for the mouse cell entry receptor. Collectively, our results suggest that the progenitor of Omicron jumped from humans to mice, rapidly accumulated mutations conducive to infecting that host,then jumped back into humans, indicating an inter-species evolutionary trajectory for the Omicron outbreak.展开更多
