Have been meaning to put this expanded alignment up as a supplement to Holmes 2021 - should do that at some point.

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

Sounds like we ought to be looking for more pango viruses?

Yes - indeed! Also RpYN06 and PRC31 are essentially GD pango in the NTD so the important bits are definitely out there! [shared file(s): image.png]

Very interesting. I'll see if any more pangolin viruses are on the go.

Looking at it this way you can see the relationships in the sarbecos pretty clearly. [shared file(s): image.png]

@Eddie Holmes On it! But hopefully others are as well.

Really interesting but I haven't fully got my head around it - basically it means that the bat-like NTD is sub-optimal for humans, B.1.1.7 has converged on whatever the pangolin has as an adaptation to humans (given that B.1.1.7 is the most human adapted virus yet).
