XBB.1.11.1 sublineage with S:S27L and S:69/70DEL (87 seqs as of 2023-04-11, mainly Singapore) #1847
Comments
This isn't S:24/27del, it's actually S:S27L on top of the S:24/26del and S:A27S (21633/21641del) that all BA.2 has. The nucleotide mutation that produces S:S27L is C21642T, but 21633/21641del followed by C21642T looks exactly the same as 21635/21643del. 29734/29759del is in all BA.2. S:69/70del is the new one. |
thz @silcn great expl. |
For a better understanding for myself, I also make a table for the situation here.

Thanks @silcn and @AnonymousUserUse ! Duly edited. |
Editing @AnonymousUserUse's table to show several possible alignments to reference: 222222222222222222 111111111111111111 666666666666666666 233333333334444444 901234567890123456 Wildtype CAATTACCCCCTGCATAC XBB.1.11.1 CAAT---------CATAC This issue CAAT---------TATAC (alignment to reference of XBB.1.11.1's del plus C21642T) This issue CAATT---------ATAC (naive alignment to reference, left-shifted) This issue CAATTA---------TAC (naive alignment to reference, right-shifted) As @silcn said:
-- that's the right-shifted alignment to reference. There's also the possibility of a left-shifted alignment to reference, 21634_21642del. An alignment tool presented with the reference and these sequences is not going to know anything about XBB.1.11.1, so it won't produce 21633_21641del + C21642T because (under the most common scoring scheme) that has a penalty of 10 (9 gap bases plus 1 substitution) while the left-shifted and right-shifted gap solutions each have a penalty of 9 gap bases. It's a toss-up between the two solutions with 9 gap bases, and different alignment tools have different behaviors when it comes to left/right shifting ambiguities. To UShER, all those gap bases will look like Ns... and it could easily get confused if it's getting inputs with a mix of left-shifted and right-shifted gaps (not to mention sequences with reference-backfilling or gaps of the wrong size), so watch out for odd behavior at bases 21642 and 21643 in particular. |

Thanks for submitting. We've added lineage FP.1 with 29 newly designated sequences, and 0 updated. Defining mutations A6616G (and cryptic S:S27L (C21642T)) (following C6312T (ORF1a:T2016I)). |
I am not sure if this is an artefact, but at face value, it seems growing quite fast in Singapore. It has a ~60% growth advantage in Singapore in the last 2 months relative to XBB.1.5*:
Sublineage of: XBB.1.11.1
Earliest sequence: 2023/02/24 (Singapore)
Most recent sequence: 2023/03/25 (Singapore)
Countries circulating: Singapore, local cases in majority, and also 4 with travel history to Malaysia
Mutations on top of XBB.1.11.1: ORF1a:T2016I (C6312T), A6616G, S:S27L (C21642T), S:69/70DEL (21767/21772DEL)
GISAID and Cov-spectrum query: A6616G, C6312T, C13968A
