Mutation Landscape of SARS COV2 in Africa

2020-12-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> COVID-19 disease has had a relatively less severe impact in Africa. To understand the role of SARS CoV2 mutations on COVID-19 disease in Africa, we analysed 282 complete nucleotide sequences from African isolates deposited in the NCBI Virus Database. Sequences were aligned against the prototype Wuhan sequence (GenBank accession: NC_045512.2 ) in BWA v. 0.7.17. SAM and BAM files were created, so...
