Expanding repertoire of SARS-CoV-2 deletion mutations contributes to evolution of highly transmissible variants

Abstract The emergence of highly transmissible SARS-CoV-2 variants and vaccine breakthrough infections globally mandated the characterization of the immuno-evasive features of SARS-CoV-2. Here, we systematically analyzed 2.13 million SARS-CoV-2 genomes from 188 countries/territories (up to June 2021...
