Abstract excerpt
SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs) that increase transmission or disease severity or reduce diagnostic or vaccine efficacy continue to emerge across the world. Current methods available to rapidly detect these can be resource intensive and thus sub-optimal for large-scale deployment needed during a pandemic response. Here, we describe a CRISPR-based assay that detects mutations in spike gene CRISPR PAM motif...
