C.1.X sublineage associated with Southern Africa #139
Comments
There are now more genomes of this from various countries - probably needs designating. |
We have also recently detected one sequence with this profile in Portugal with the additional Spike mutation N440K (EPI_ISL_2989113). |
These sequences seem to cluster with @grovesn and @insapathogenomics sequences:
They are kind of messy though, lots of mutations that appear together (or not) inconsistently, so I also wonder how much contamination is muddling the waters here. Here's a Nextstrain view of all 20 sequences with the most closely related outgroup sequence, from a modified version of the 2021-07-20 UCSC tree (a weird probably-contaminated branch in the UCSC tree attracted the sequences, so I removed that branch and added back these 20 to get this view): |
Here's another parsimony-ish view when the 20 sequences are added back in a different order (outgroup sequence in red): |
