Popis: | Random mutations and recombinations are the main sources for the genetic diversity in SARS-CoV-2, with mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) receptor binding motif (RBM) representing a high potential for the emergence of new putative variants under investigation (VUI) or variants of concern (VOC). It is of importance, to measure the different circulating SARS-CoV-2 lineages in order to establish a regional SARS-CoV-2 surveillance program. We established whole genome sequencing (WGS) of circulating SARS-CoV-2 lineages in order to establish a regional SARS-CoV-2 surveillance program. |
