Talk:D614G

No links into the desert
First of all, when a redirect is made, it has to direct to a page where the redirected term is mentioned. -- Manorainjan  09:27, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Not necessarily. Even so, what would be a better redirect? I think we need to be careful not get SARS-CoV-2 centered when it comes to changes than can happen in any protein, like this (if it has 614+ residues, of course), which is why I don't wanna redirect to SARS-CoV-2 variants or something like that—and VOC-202012/01 definitely isn't a good redirect since it gives the impression that it's a defining change in that variant when it's not.  —Biscuit-in-Chief :-)  (/tɔːk/ – /ˈkɒntɹɪbs/) 13:38, 24 December 2020 (UTC)


 * It means a change took place at position 614 of the genome. Effectively it means on the genome of SARS-CoV-1. For any other genome it would mean a differend thing. It seems You aren ot aware of that. -- Manorainjan  14:15, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

D614G mutation
This is the same thing with another name. If at all it should be given an extended name it should be D614G substitution. -- Manorainjan  14:50, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Article
Given the already many mentions of D614G in the articles it becomes obvious, that this term needs its own article. -- Manorainjan  14:52, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
