Detection and Characterization of Bat Sarbecovirus Phylogenetically Related to SARS-CoV-2, Japan

TL;DR: The sarbecovirus’ spike protein specifically recognizes angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 of R. cornutus, but not humans, as an entry receptor, which indicates its phylogenetically related to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.
Journal ArticleDOI

The HA and NS genes of human H5N1 influenza A virus contribute to high virulence in ferrets.

TL;DR: It is found that the residue at position 134 of HA alters the receptor-binding property of the virus, as measured by viral elution from erythrocytes, and both of the residues at positions 200 and 205 of NS1 contributed to enhanced type I interferon (IFN) antagonistic activity.
