Originally proposed by @DeepakPhuyal, see https://github.com/sars-cov-2-variants/lineage-proposals/issues/1183

Description:BA.2.86.4/GK.1 recombinant, First and biggest part (incl. from Spike) from BA.2.86.4 Private mutations: Really private:C1601T, T4654C, T7633C, C9661T and A19326G (thanks @Over-There-Is ) From BA.2.86.4: T5767C, A8633G From GK.1: T25496C, G27014A Breakpoint: between nucleotide 23673 and 24378 (Spike 704 and 939) Earliest sequence: 2023-11-13 from Ireland Most recent sequence: 2024-01-22 from England Countries circulating: Ireland 20, England 7, Scotland 1 GISAID query: A18492G, C23604G, A25045G, C25658T or C897A, A7842G, C1601T, A8633G found by @aviczhl2 CovSpectrum query: https://cov-spectrum.org/explore/World/AllSamples/Past6M/variants?nucMutations=C25658T&pangoLineage=BA.2.86.4*& Usher tree: image Nextclade: image Nextclade comparison: image

Note: I recommend designating this one, since right now half of the BA.2.86.4 sequences found are actually this recombinant. Plus, BA.2.86.4 seems to have stopped growing, while this recombinant has not. image

35 now. It is not slow.

ping @corneliusroemer this should be designated. again we see BA.2.86 re - gaining some fitness via recombination with FLip lineages , i think it is the third with this trend.

And G29778A is also inherited from that GK.1 branch.

I am not sure about that. Almost half of the samples do not have it. And I believe the matching GK.1's do not have it either, but I should check that further.
