AnnCovDB: a manually curated annotation database for mutations in SARS-CoV-2 spike protein

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been circulating and adapting within the human population for >4 years. A large number of mutations have occurred in the viral genome, resulting in significant variants known as variants of concern (VOCs) and variants of interest (VOIs). The spike (S) protein harbors many of the characteristic mutations of VOCs and VOIs, and significant efforts have been made to explore functional effects of the mutations in the S protein, which...
