Tracking SARS-CoV-2

In this video, published by InnovATEBIO, Sandra Porter highlights how to use bioinformatics tools to investigate the SARS-CoV-2 genome and protein sequences. Viewers learn how to make a genome dataset and prepare a phylogenetic tree with viral genomes; make a protein dataset and create a multiple alignment with sequences from spike proteins; look at viral evolution in NextStrain.org; and locate the D614G mutation in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The video recording runs 1:06:38 minutes in length.
