The Receptor Binding Domain of SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein is the result of an ancestral recombination between the bat-CoV RaTG13 and the pangolin-CoV MP789

2020-08-18

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Objective: In December 2019 a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) that is causing the current COVID-19 pandemic was identified in Wuhan, China. Many questions have been raised about its origin and adaptation to humans. In the present work we performed a genetic analysis of the Spike glycoprotein (S) of SARS-CoV-2 and other related coronaviruses (CoVs) isolated from different hosts in order t...
