Result: The Beta S is comprised of the L18F, D80A, D215G, and 242-244 mutations in the NTD, K417N and E484K mutations in the receptor-binding domain (RBD), and A701V in the S1/S2 cleavage site.
Evaluation of the clinical and analytical performance of the Seegene allplex SARS-CoV-2 variants I assay for the detection of variants of concern (VOC) and variants of interests (VOI).
Method: SARS-CoV-2 pseudotyped lentiviruses were prepared by co-transfecting the HEK293T cell line with either the SARS-CoV-2 ancestral variant spike (D614G), the Beta spike (L18F, D80A, D215G, K417N, E484K, N501Y, D614G, A701V, 242-244 del) or the Delta spike (T19R, R158G L452R, T478K, D614G, P681R, D950N, 156-157 del) plasmids in co
Temporal-Geographical Dispersion of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Glycoprotein Variant Lineages and Their Functional Prediction Using in Silico Approach.
Result: Dual mutants containing D614G and other amino acid changes, including those under positive selection or observed in VOCs (L5F, L18F, S98F, W152L/C, E154K, L222V, and A262S in S1-NTD; N439K, L452Q/R, S477N, L478R/K, E484K/Q, N501Y, and A570D within S1-RBD; Q677H/P and P681H/R in S1-CTD; T716I,
