Spike mutation pipeline reveals the emergence of a more transmissible form of SARS-CoV-2
2020-04-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> We have developed an analysis pipeline to facilitate real-time mutation tracking in SARS-CoV-2, focusing initially on the Spike (S) protein because it mediates infection of human cells and is the target of most vaccine strategies and antibody-based therapeutics. To date we have identified thirteen mutations in Spike that are accumulating. Mutations are considered in a broader phylogenetic context...
