Intrahost SARS-CoV-2 k-mer identification method (iSKIM) for rapid detection of mutations of concern reveals emergence of global mutation patterns

Ashley Thommana, Migun Shakya, Jaykumar Gandhi, Christian K. Fung, Patrick Chain, Irina Maljkovic Berry, Matthew A. Conte

The paper introduces iSKIM, a method to detect intrahost mutations in SARS-CoV-2 raw sequencing data, revealing early emergence of mutations associated with variants of concern.

High confidence identification of intra-host single nucleotide variants for person-to-person influenza transmission tracking in congregate settings

Irina Maljkovic Berry, Todd J. Treangen, Christian Fung, Sheldon Tai, Simon Pollett, Filbert H. Hong, Tao Li, Papa K. Pireku, Ashley Thommana, Jennifer R. German, P. Jacob Bueno de Mesquita, Wiriya Rutvisuttinunt, Michael Panciera, Grace M. Lidl, Matthew B. Frieman, , Donald Kirby Milton

The paper identifies intra-host single nucleotide variants (iSNVs) in influenza samples to track transmission links, finding that technical and systematic errors affect iSNV calling and that self-reference reduces noise.
