Classification of Omicron BA.1, BA.1.1 and BA.2 sublineages by TaqMan assay consistent with whole genome analysis data

2022-04-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective</h4> Recently, the Omicron strain of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread and replaced the previously dominant Delta strain. Several Omicron sublineages (BA.1, BA.1.1 and BA.2) have been identified, with in vitro and preclinical reports showing that the pathogenicity and therapeutic efficacy differs between BA.1 and BA.2. We sought to develop a TaqMan assay to ident...
