Interesting though is A.23.1 with Doug's neighbour Qeith. It has NSP12 Y346H - related?
-
(also 681R of course)
-
Full complement is: Spike: F157L, V367F, Q613H, P681R, R102I N: Q39R, S202N NS8: L84S, E92K NSP4: T495I NSP6: L98F, M183I, M86I NSP12: Y346H Could the NSP6 have similar effects to the deletion?
-
Much of this is discussed in https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.02.08.21251393v1.full.pdf but I don't think we mentioned the RdRp mutation because P323L has never really been talked about yet.

Y346H -not directly in the groove itself *but right in line with the P323*. So putting that charged Histidine in is goingto disrupt the bonding underlaying the channel and have a very similar effect to PhiL. [shared file(s): image.png]

Bingo.

So we have a common set of functional sites/effects for all the new variants: An RdRp mutation, an nsp6 modification, spike 613/614, some NTD mutations/deletions and some RBD mutations.
-
YES indeed! AS for the nsp6 mutations i'm betting functionally similar to the SGF del -the L98F mutations is probably the most important - in the same "external" loop as the SGF deletion and it makes WF more strongly aromatic. Tryptophans are not kept unless they are needed, so yes affecting regulation of whatever NSP6 is doingto interferon and/or autophagy. Not to dismiss the Met to Inosine mtations that are probably paired and doing something to that TM helix. [shared file(s): image.png]

Thanks Andrew for the changes to the bat virological! Nicely done and overall much more focused and more importantly *effective* thanks to you and Eddie. @Kristian Andersen the bat-post looking good IMO. Let us know when you're able to take a brief look - life being insanely crazy all around.
