Table 1. Mutations beneficial to ID8 under two selection regimes.
Label | Selection | Protein function | Protein name | Aa position | Aa | Nuc position | Nuc | |
T1 | 80°C | 1 | coat | F | 5 | T A | 2578 | A G |
T2 | 80°C | 1 | coat | F | 355 | P S | 3628 | C T |
T3 | 80°C | 1 | spike | G | 168 | R C | 4484 | C T |
T4 | 80°C | 2 | spike | G | 38 | R C | 4094 | C T |
P1 | pH 1.5 | 2 | coat | F | 77 | I T | 2792 | T C |
P2 | pH 1.5 | 1 | spike | G | 65 | T A | 4175 | A G |

The seven beneficial mutations identified in this study affected three different viral structural proteins: the major coat protein F, the spike protein G, and the pilot protein H. Positions are based on the published genome sequence of ID8 (GenBank accession # DQ079898). Nuc, nucleotide; n, number of lineages with mutation; Nuc, nucleotide change; Aa, amino acid; Aa, amino-acid change.
