Potential BA.2.76/BA.5.2 recombinant with spike changes from both donors (50 seqs as of 2022-11-12) #896
Comments
There's an unrelated but similar recombinant (between BA.2.76 and BF.3) that has been placed next to #896 by Usher, probably because of identical breakpoint. |
A quick update: There are 15 sequences now, with the latest one collected on 2022-09-17. |
This recombinant started to grow again after a hiatus of almost one month. 5 new sequences have just been uploaded from UK-England with a very recent collection date. |
12 new sequences since last update (on 2022-11-01), and 45 sequences in total. |
5 new sequences as of 2022-11-12, all very recently collected. Also GISAID query is updated: Spike_Y248, Spike_R346T, Spike_F486V, Spike_L452R, NS3_I263T |
Added new recombinant lineage XBG from #896 with 14 new sequence designations, and 0 updated designations
Thanks for submitting. We've added recombinant lineage XBG with 14 newly designated sequences, and 0 updated designations. Defining mutations C10116T (ORF1a:T3284I), T22304A (S:Y248N), G22599C (S:R346T), T26180C (ORF3a:I263T), A24676G, A19812G, C11665T. |

I am proposing this potential recombinant with only 5 sequences based on its mutation profile at spike protein.
It acquires through the recombination event S:Y248N and S:R346T from BA.2.76 to a BA.5.2 backbone, which are both amino changes associated with relative growth advantages among multiple other Omicron sublineages.
It also has a private NSP5 change (ORF1a:T3284I)
Description
Recombinant between: BA.2.76 and BA.5.2
Earliest sequence: 2022/07/05 (UK-Scotland)
Most recent sequence: 2022/07/13 (UK-Wales)
Countries circulating: UK (4 in Scotland and 1 in Wales)
Likely breakpoint: between 22601 and 22915 (Spike S1)
Mutations on branch: C10116T (ORF1a:T3284I), C11665T, A19812G, T22304A (S:Y248N), G22599C (S:R346T), A24676G, T26180C (ORF3a:I263T)
Nuc mutations (those in red frames are likely from BA.2.76):
GISAID query: NSP5_T21I, Spike_Y248N, Spike_R346T, Spike_F486V, M_D3N
Alternative GISAID query (for sensitivity purposes): Spike_Y248, Spike_R346T, Spike_F486V, Spike_L452R, NS3_I263T
cov-spectrum query: C10116T, C11665T, A19812G, T22304A, T26180C
