Proposal for a small sub-clade of AY.23 with S:E702V in Europe (262 sequences) #266

Closed c19850727 closed 2 years ago

c19850727 commented 3 years ago

I am thinking these small clade might be worth keeping an eye on, as it's a sub-branch of a predominantly SE Asian lineage introduced into Europe. image

Sub-lineage of: AY.23 (262 sequences) Earliest sequence: 2021/7/22 (Switzerland) Most recent sequence: 2021/10/9 (Sweden) Countries circulating: Sweden (81 sequences), Germany (77 sequences), and a few other European countries.

Cumulative prevalence and number of sequences as per Outbreak.info: image

Mutations in addition to AY.23: C15960T, then A20979G, then ORF1a:R3880G and S:E702V

Genomes: AY.23+E702V.csv

@c19850727 it's best if you turn on branch labels: aa for screenshots to show mutations in screenshots, or add following query parameter: branchLabel=aa See: image

Here's geography as well, looks good to me. image

Can you include S:702V in the title of the issue to make it easier to spot lineage from title alone?

It's actually died out in Switzerland (where it first popped up, before Switzerland), Germany and seemingly also Sweden: image

Thanks @c19850727 We've added this as AY.23.2 in v1.2.103 to start on a branch with T3718A (synonymous), A11903G (Orf1ab:R2880G) and A23667T (S:E702V) which likely coincides with the introduction(s) into Europe
