Journal ArticleDOI
Origin and evolution of pathogenic coronaviruses
Jie Cui,Fang Li,Zhengli Shi +2 more
TL;DR: The viral factors that enabled the emergence of diseases such as severe acute respiratory syndrome and Middle East respiratory syndrome are explored and the diversity and potential of bat-borne coronaviruses are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Receptor Recognition by the Novel Coronavirus from Wuhan: an Analysis Based on Decade-Long Structural Studies of SARS Coronavirus.
TL;DR: These analyses provide insights into the receptor usage, cell entry, host cell infectivity and animal origin of 2019-nCoV and may help epidemic surveillance and preventive measures against 2019- nCoV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural basis of receptor recognition by SARS-CoV-2.
Jian Shang,Gang Ye,Ke Shi,Yushun Wan,Chuming Luo,Hideki Aihara,Qibin Geng,Ashley Auerbach,Fang Li +8 more
TL;DR: This study determines the crystal structure of the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 (engineered to facilitate crystallization) in complex with ACE2 and sheds light on the structural features that increase its binding affinity to ACE2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell entry mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2.
TL;DR: Key cell entry mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 that potentially contribute to the immune evasion, cell infectivity, and wide spread of the virus are identified using biochemical and pseudovirus entry assays and the potency and evasiveness are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure, Function, and Evolution of Coronavirus Spike Proteins.
TL;DR: This article reviews current knowledge about the structures and functions of coronavirus spike proteins, illustrating how the two S1 domains recognize different receptors and how the spike proteins are regulated to undergo conformational transitions.
