Key findings made possible by NGS technology

1. The presence, structure, and function of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein [1,43].

2. The presence and ramifications of a furin-like cleavage site on the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein [43,45].

3. Mechanisms of viral stability inside human cells [42,46].

4. The presence and structure of B-cell and T-cell epitopes on viral proteins [47].
