Abstract Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants have received increasing attention globally because of their increased transmissibility and potential to escape immunity. Although whole-genome sequencing is the gold standard method for SARS-CoV-2 mutation detection and lineage determination, it is costly and time-consuming. However, SARS-CoV-2 variants can be identified based on select variant-specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the spike protein-encoding gene (S). This study validated and compared the limit of detection (LOD) of L452R, N501Y, HV69/70 del and E484K as variant-specific SNPs of the S gene and RdRP as a SARS-CoV-2-specific gene, using the Novaplex SARS-CoV-2 variants assay kit series. For three SARS-CoV-2 lineages (B.1.617.2, B.1.1.7 and R.1), one strain per lineage was used. Variant-specific SNPs of the S gene were analysed using the Novaplex SARS-CoV-2 variants I assay and Novaplex SARS-CoV-2 variants II assay kits. Validation confirmed the LODs of the variant kits. The LOD for each target variant-specific SNP and RdRP was five RNA copies per reaction. The Novaplex SARS-CoV-2 variants assay kit series performs well and the LOD for SARS-CoV-2 detection and variant-specific SNP detection are consistent. The kits are suitable for use as routine laboratory tests for SARS-CoV-2 and variant-specific SNP detection in a single step, saving time and labour.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
