The status and analysis of common mutations found in the SARS-CoV-2 whole genome sequences from Bangladesh.

ABSTRACT: Rapid emergence of covid-19 variants by continuous mutation made the world experience continuous waves of infections and as a result, a huge number of death-toll recorded so far. It is, therefore, very important to investigate the diversity and nature of the mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 genomes. In this study, the common mutations occurred in the whole genome sequences of SARS-CoV-2 variants of Bangladesh in a certain timeline were analyzed to better understand its status. Hence, a total of 78 complete genome sequences available in the NCBI database were obtained, aligned and further analyzed. Scattered Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified throughout the genome of variants and common SNPs such as: 241:C>T in the 5'UTR of Open Reading Frame 1A (ORF1A), 3037: C>T in Non-stru
