Delta variant AY.36 sub-lineage proposal mainly circulating in Germany #434
Comments
County frequency of this AY.36 sub-lineage (based on information till 2022-02-08):

Hi thanks for highlighting and adding your precious analysis. |
Will be great this AY.36 sub-lineage got its own name.....it is still circulating in Germany. |
@corneliusroemer @chrisruis Probably this deserves a designation: proposed here and in #407 . |
I agree, this could be designated, though with only 1.8k sequences it's not that big a lineage, so I'm on the fence. AY.36* seems to have been as competitive as AY.4.2* in Germany which is interesting. @chrisruis what do you think? |
@corneliusroemer 3 last seqs are from 2 countries (Ger, Cz) in february22 EPI_ISL_9963879 |
The variant had grown very rapidly in our local samples till recently when Omicron became dominant. Indeed, it is as competitive as AY.4.2*, and the local spreading pattern is also quite special. |
Thanks @genomesurveillance I agree this warrants a designation. We've added this as AY.36.1 in v1.2.131 to start on the branch with C28290T (N:P6L) |
I could not detect AY.36.1 with the newest release v1.2.131, also I did not find AY.36.1 in the lineages.csv file. Can you please have a check @chrisruis ? |
Hi @genomesurveillance Just had a look and AY.36.1 is in the lineages.csv for v1.2.131. Sequences won't be assigned to AY.36.1 with pangolin until there's a new run of pangoLEARN which we run every week or two. So sequences won't be assigned to AY.36.1 yet. It should appear in pangolin when the pangoLEARN release (which you can see here) includes v1.2.131 |
@chrisruis Thank you very much for the quick feedback! |
It is necessary to designate this AY.36 sub-lineage as this sub-lineage occurred in Germany, increased quickly in Germany, and then spread to the rest of Europe, which is different from original AY.36 (dominant in Nigeria and spread to UK and a few countries in the rest of Europe),
Description
Sub-lineage of AY.36.
Earliest sequence: Germany 2021-10-04.
Most recent sequence: Current
Countries circulating: mainly in Germany, also in multiple other European countries.
In addition to AA substitutions shared with AY.36: S: 1104L, orf1b:721R, orf1b:1538L
This sub-lineage has four additional AA substitutions: orf9b: 3S, orf3a: 223I, orf1a: 944L, N: 6L.
