Here we report a novel and highly divergent lineage with 21 characteristic mutations, including 10 non-synonymous, 8 synonymous and 3 mutations in non-coding regions (5’and 3’ UTR and intergenic region).
Four Colombian sequences collected between December 26, 2020 and January 14, 2021with a characteristic mutation pattern, including two amino acid changes in the Spike protein (L249S and E484K) were assigned to the B.1.111 lineage
