TLDR
A seroprevalence study on archived sera from 94 game-food animal handlers at a wild life market, 28 SARS patients, and 152 healthy blood donors in Southern China to assess the zoonotic potential and evidence for intrusion of HCoV-EMC and related viruses into humans found a significant B-cell epitope overlapping the heptad repeat-2 region of Spike protein.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Projecting the transmission dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 through the postpandemic period.
TL;DR: Using existing data to build a deterministic model of multiyear interactions between existing coronaviruses, with a focus on the United States, is used to project the potential epidemic dynamics and pressures on critical care capacity over the next 5 years and projected that recurrent wintertime outbreaks of SARS-CoV-2 will probably occur after the initial, most severe pandemic wave.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coronaviruses - drug discovery and therapeutic options.
TL;DR: The epidemiology, virology, clinical features and current treatment strategies of SARS and MERS are summarized, and the discovery and development of new virus-based and host-based therapeutic options for CoV infections are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Middle East respiratory syndrome.
TL;DR: The Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is a lethal zoonotic pathogen that was first identified in humans in Saudi Arabia and Jordan in 2012.
Journal ArticleDOI
The receptor binding domain of the viral spike protein is an immunodominant and highly specific target of antibodies in SARS-CoV-2 patients.

TL;DR: Results, which reveal the early kinetics of Sars-CoV-2 antibody responses, support using the RBD antigen in serological diagnostic assays and RBD-specific antibody levels as a correlate of SARS-Co V-2 neutralizing antibodies in people.

TL;DR: Developing an effective camel MERS-CoV vaccine and implementing appropriate infection control measures may control the continuing epidemic.

Predicting transmembrane protein topology with a hidden Markov model: application to complete genomes
TL;DR: A new membrane protein topology prediction method, TMHMM, based on a hidden Markov model is described and validated, and it is discovered that proteins with N(in)-C(in) topologies are strongly preferred in all examined organisms, except Caenorhabditis elegans, where the large number of 7TM receptors increases the counts for N(out)-C-in topologies.

TL;DR: The clinical picture was remarkably similar to that of the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak in 2003 and reminds us that animal coronaviruses can cause severe disease in humans.

TL;DR: A novel coronavirus is associated with this outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome, and the evidence indicates that this virus has an etiologic role in SARS.

TL;DR: Serological and molecular tests specific for the virus permitted a definitive laboratory diagnosis to be made and allowed further investigation to define whether other cofactors play a part in disease progression.
