Popis: In this study, the authors sequence 892 SARS-CoV-2 genomes from Saudi Arabia and describe population dynamics and importations into the country. They identify a nucleocapsid protein mutation associated with increased viral load and host interactions and characterise its role through biochemical analyses.
