## AI overview

The article compares genetic differences among major SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, focusing on mRNA and viral-vector vaccines and how they express modified or unmodified Spike protein. It lists products including BioNTech/Pfizer, Moderna, CureVac, Oxford/AstraZeneca, Janssen, and Sputnik V.

## Source excerpt

Translations: 中文, 日本語 As a followup to Reverse Engineering the source code of the BioNTech/Pfizer SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine, here is a look at the genetic code behind some of the other vaccines. I recommend at least skimming the earlier post before delving into this one, unless you are already fluent in modified mRNA bases and protein expression mechanics. To get an extremely full background on all vaccine work, I kindly refer you to excellent posts from Derek Lowe and Hilda Bastian.
