Update: Selection analysis on spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2

We have recently conducted a selection pressure analysis on SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein sequences. The analysis revealed not even a single site showing evidence of purifying selection but episodic diversifying selection on three sites. Out of these three sites, two sites are potentially relevant (Fig. 3). Fig. 3 Structure of Spike Glycoprotein (PDB ID: 6VXX) of … Continue reading Update: Selection analysis on spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2
