Mashup Score: 692Virological characteristics of the SARS-CoV-2 KP.2 variant - 15 hour(s) ago
The JN.1 variant (BA.2.86.1.1), arising from BA.2.86(.1) with the S:L455S substitution, exhibited increased fitness and outcompeted the previous dominant XBB lineage by the biggening of 2024. JN.1 subsequently diversified, leading to the emergence of descendants with spike (S) protein substitutions such as S:R346T and S:F456L. Particularly, the KP.2 (JN.1.11.1.2) variant, a descendant of JN.1 bearing both S:R346T and S:F456L, is rapidly spreading in multiple regions as of April 2024. Here, we investigated the virological properties of KP.2. KP.2 has three substitutions in the S protein including the two above and additional one substitution in non-S protein compared with JN.1. We estimated the relative effective reproduction number (Re) of KP.2 based on the genome surveillance data from the USA, United Kingdom, and Canada where >30 sequences of KP.2 has been reported, using a Bayesian multinomial logistic model. The Re of KP.2 is 1.22-, 1.32-, and 1.26-fold higher than that of JN.1 in
