Defining mutations: BA.2.86.1>T21610C>A22991G (S:N477D)

GISAID query: A6183G, C12815T, A22991G Earliest seq: 2023-09-04 (England, UK- EPI_ISL_18262768) Most recent seq: 2023-09-06 (England, UK-EPI_ISL_18273644) Countries detected: UK (2)

since S:S477N (nuc G22992A) emerged in BA.1 sublineage, it is stable in almost Omicron lineages (incluidng XBB*). Now we can track whether the 2-nuc mutations S:S477D will develop.

Puerto Rico is a typo, the accession ID corresponds to a UK sample.
