SARS-CoV-2 XEC: A Genome-Based Survey
24 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
Recombination, a process of genetic exchange between distinct organisms, has played a critical role in the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants such as the XEC recombinant. This study provides a detailed genomic and structural characterization of XEC, derived from the recombination of lineages KP.3.3 (donor) and KS.1.1 (acceptor). Phylogenomic analyses reveal that XEC and its descendant XEC.1 form a monophyletic...
