• Highly effective antibodies against the coronavirus were identified
  

  Researchers at the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) and Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin have identified highly effective antibodies against the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 and are now pursuing the development of a passive vaccination. In this process, they have also discovered tha more

• Glycans in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein play active role in infection
  

  As the COVID-19 pandemic rages on, researchers are working overtime to develop vaccines and therapies to thwart SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the disease Many efforts focus on the coronavirus spike protein, which binds the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) on human cells to allow viral more

• Broad receptor engagement of an emerging global coronavirus may potentiate its diverse cross-species transmissibility [Microbiology]

  Coronaviruses exhibit a propensity for interspecies transmission, with SARS- and MERS-coronaviruses as notable examples. Cross-species transmission by coronaviruses is foremost determined by the virus’ ability to bind receptors of new hosts. We here report that the recently identified, yet globally more

  Viruses, Vol. 10, Pages 93: MERS-CoV: Understanding the Latest Human Coronavirus Threat Viruses doi: 10.3390/v10020093 Authors: Aasiyah Chafekar Burtram Fielding Human coronaviruses cause both upper and lower respiratory tract infections in humans. In 2012, a sixth human coronavirus more

• Tectonic conformational changes of a coronavirus spike glycoprotein promote membrane fusion [Biophysics and Computational Biology]

  The tremendous pandemic potential of coronaviruses was demonstrated twice in the past few decades by two global outbreaks of deadly pneumonia. The coronavirus spike (S) glycoprotein initiates infection by promoting fusion of the viral and cellular membranes through conformational changes that remain more
