Abstract: The infamous
D614G variant has spread worldwide with ever-rising dominance and across regions with different climatic conditions alongside
L5F and
D936Y mutants, which have been documented throughout all regions and climate zones, respectively.
Result: Among these replacements, aa residues at position 5 (
L5F) and 614 (
D614G) were found to be the common in Asia, Europe, North America, South America, Africa and Australia (Figure 5b).
Figure: We found two core shared aa mutations at residue position 5 (
L5F) and 614 (
D614G) in Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia, North America and South America, and two core shared mutations at residue positions of 614 (
D614G) and 936 (
D936Y
