TL;DR: It is reported that species of bats are a natural host of coronaviruses closely related to those responsible for the SARS outbreak, and these viruses display greater genetic variation than SARS-CoV isolated from humans or from civets.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study investigated the receptor usage of the SL-CoV S by combining a human immunodeficiency virus-based pseudovirus system with cell lines expressing the ACE2 molecules of human, civet, or horseshoe bat, and found it to be largely compatible with SARS- coV S protein both in structure and in function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Full-length genome sequences of two SARS-like coronaviruses in horseshoe bats and genetic variation analysis.
Wuze Ren,Wendong Li,Meng Yu,Pei Hao,Yuan Zhang,Peng Zhou,Shuyi Zhang,Guoping Zhao,Yang Zhong,Shengyue Wang,Lin-Fa Wang,Zhengli Shi +11 more
TL;DR: Genetic analysis demonstrated that a diverse G2b-CoV population exists in the bat habitat and has evolved from a common ancestor of SARS- coV.
Short Communication Full-length genome sequences of two SARS-like coronaviruses in horseshoe bats and genetic variation analysis
Wuze Ren,Wendong Li,Meng Yu,Pei Hao,Yuan Zhang,Peng Zhou,Shuyi Zhang,Guoping Zhao,Yang Zhong,Shengyue Wang,Lin-Fa Wang,Zhengli Shi +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, complete genome sequences of two additional group 2b coronaviruses (G2b-CoVs) were determined from horseshoe bat Rhinolophus ferrumequinum and Rhinophus macrotis.
