我们报告了导致在法国首次检测到令人担忧的202012/01(挥发性有机化合物)变异的战略(2020年12月21日)。首先,筛选在包括VOC在内的某些Δ-CoV-2变种中发现的尖峰(S)缺失H69-V70(ΔH69/SARS V70)。这种缺失与三靶点RT-PCRTaqPath试剂盒中的S基因靶向失败(SGTF)有关。随后,对SGTF样本进行全基因组测序。这种方法发现了与ΔH69/ΔV70共存的突变,包括S:N501Y。
We report the strategy leading to the first detection of variant of concern 202012/01 (VOC) in France (21 December 2020). First, the spike (S) deletion H69–V70 (ΔH69/ΔV70), identified in certain SARS-CoV-2 variants including VOC, is screened for. This deletion is associated with a S-gene target failure (SGTF) in the three-target RT-PCR assay (TaqPath kit). Subsequently, SGTF samples are whole genome sequenced. This approach revealed mutations co-occurring with ΔH69/ΔV70 including S:N501Y in the VOC.
