Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 infection that caused the COVID-19 pandemic has become a significant public health concern. New variants with distinct mutations have emerged, potentially impacting its infectivity, immune evasion capacity, and vaccine response. A whole-genome sequencing study of 292 SARS-CoV-2 isolates collected from selected regions of Indonesia between January and October 2021 was performed to identify the distribution of SARS-CoV-2 variants and common mutations in Indonesia. During January–April 2021, Indonesian lineages B.1.466.2 and B.1.470 dominated, but from May 2021, Delta’s AY.23 lineage outcompeted them. An analysis of 7515 published sequences from January 2021 to June 2022 revealed a decline in Delta in November 2021, followed by the emergence of Omicron variants in December 2021. We identified C241T (5′UTR), P314L (NSP12b), F106F (NSP3), and D614G (Spike) mutations in all sequences. The other common substitutions included P681R (76.4%) and T478K (60%) in Spike, D377Y in Nucleocapsid (61%), and I82T in Membrane (60%) proteins. Breakthrough infection and prolonged viral shedding cases were associated with Delta variants carrying the Spike T19R, G142D, L452R, T478K, D614G, P681R, D950N, and V1264L mutations. The dynamic of SARS-CoV-2 variants in Indonesia highlights the importance of continuous genomic surveillance in monitoring and identifying potential strains leading to disease outbreaks.
