Targeted Amplification and Genetic Sequencing of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Surface Glycoprotein
2023-08-01
Abstract excerpt
The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is a highly immunogenic and mutable protein that is the target of vaccine prevention and antibody therapeutics. This makes the encoding S-gene an important sequencing target. The SARS-CoV-2 sequencing community overwhelmingly adopted tiling amplicon-based strategies for sequencing the entire genome. As the virus evolved, primer mismatches inevitably led to amplicon drop-out. Given the...
