Popis | In a recently published paper, we have found that SARS-CoV-2 hot-spot mutations are significantly associated with inverted repeat loci and CG dinucleotides (Goswami, Bartas et al., 2020). However, fast-spreading strains with new mutations (so-called mink farm mutations, England mutations, and Japan mutations) have been recently described. We used the new datasets to check the positioning of mutation sites in genomes of the new SARS-CoV-2 strains. Using an open-access Palindrome analyzer tool we found mutations in these new strains to be significantly enriched in inverted repeat loci. |
