Paired associated SARS-CoV-2 spike variable positions: a network analysis approach to emerging variants by Yiannis Manoussopoulos, Cleo Anastassopoulou, John P. A. Ioannidis, Athanasios Tsakris

“…Cliques of different sizes represented theoretical combinations of changing residues in sequence space, allowing the identification of significant aminoacidic combinations in single sequences of real-world populations. Our analytic approach that links network structural aspects to mutational aminoacidic combinations in the spike sequence population offers a novel way to understand virus epidemiology and evolution.…”
