Fig. 5. Phylogenetic analyses suggest mutual exclusivity for P132H and ∆P168.

(A) Phylogenetic trees for viral genomes with the indicated resistance mutations (GISAID, 6 December 2022). Only the Omicron lineage is displayed for M49I because of the high frequency of this mutation. (B) Branches of the phylogenetic tree from (A) showing transmission of a Delta lineage isolate with ∆P168 likely from a single founder event. (C) Frequency of Mpro variants in Omicron lineage compared to all previous viral lineages. (D) Background luminescence as a proxy for protease activity of different Mpro variants on the P132H (Omicron) background using the live-cell Src-Mpro-Tat-fLuc assay. (E) Dose-response curves for nirmatrelvir and ensitrelvir inhibition of Mpro variants on the P132H (Omicron) background using the live-cell Src-Mpro-Tat-fLuc assay.
