Eris - another brick in the wall: Empirical formulas, molar masses, biosynthesis reactions, enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs energy of Omicron EG.5 Eris and EG.5.1 variants of SARS-CoV-2

Since 2019, when it appeared in Wuhan, in the wild type form later labeled Hu-1, SARS-CoV-2 mutated dozens of times and evolved towards increase in infectivity and decrease or maintenance of constant pathogenicity through dozens of variants. The last of them are Omicron EG.5 and EG.5.1. Until 2019, an empirical formula was known only for the poliovirus. Until now empirical formulas and thermodynamic properties were reported for all variants of SARS-CoV-2 and some other viruses. Also, models were developed that describe the biothermodynamic background of SARS-CoV-2 interaction with its human host. With every new mutation in SARS-CoV-2, the question is raised about the further evolution of the virus. This paper reports for the first time empirical formulas and molar masses of Omicron EG.5 and EG.5.1 variants, as well as thermodynamic properties (enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs energy) of formation and biosynthesis. Moreover, the driving force of virus multiplication was analyzed, as well as multiplication rate and pathogenicity of Omicron EG.5 and EG.5.1.
