TLDR
Peptide-based vaccines against SARS-CoV could be engineered to avoid ADE via elimination of the S597–603 epitope, an alternative strategy to prepare a safe and effective vaccine for ADE of viral infection by identifying and eliminating epitope sequence-dependent enhancement of viral infections.Citations

TL;DR: A SARS-CoV-2 variant carrying the Spike protein amino acid change D614G has become the most prevalent form in the global pandemic, and it is found that the G614 variant grows to higher titer as pseudotyped virions.
Journal ArticleDOI
SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in development.
TL;DR: The development of vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 is reviewed, including an overview of the development process, the different types of vaccine candidate, and data from animal studies as well as phase I and II clinical trials in humans.

TL;DR: A dose-escalation, single-centre, open-label, non-randomised, phase 1 trial of an Ad5 vectored COVID-19 vaccine expressing the spike glycoprotein of a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) strain to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity.

SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines: Status Report.
Fatima Amanat,Florian Krammer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss therapeutic and prophylactic interventions for SARS-CoV-2 with a focus on vaccine development and its challenges, and critical lessons can be learned for the development of vaccines against rapidly emerging viruses.

From SARS to MERS, Thrusting Coronaviruses into the Spotlight
Zhiqi Song,Yanfeng Xu,Linlin Bao,Ling Zhang,Pin Yu,Yajin Qu,Hua Zhu,Wenjie Zhao,Yunlin Han,Chuan Qin +9 more
TL;DR: The research still needed to fully elucidate the pathogenic mechanism of these viruses, to construct reproducible animal models, and ultimately develop countermeasures to conquer not only SARS-CoV and MERS-coV, but also these emerging coronaviral diseases are outlined.

TL;DR: It is found that a soluble form of ACE2, but not of the related enzyme ACE1, blocked association of the S1 domain with Vero E6 cells, indicating that ACE2 is a functional receptor for SARS-CoV.

TL;DR: The novel coronavirus might have a role in causing SARS and was detected in a variety of clinical specimens from patients with SARS but not in controls.
PatentDOI
Synthesis of proteins by native chemical ligation
TL;DR: The technique of native chemical ligation is employable for chemically synthesizing full length proteins as discussed by the authors, which are chemically identical to proteins produced by cell free synthesis, and can be refolded and/or oxidized to form native disulfide-containing protein molecules.

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.
