Probable human origin of the SARS-CoV-2 polybasic furin cleavage site

2022-09-09

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> <bold>Background:</bold> the origin of the current SARS-CoV-2 virus is still elusive. However, the finding that Laos bats host closest known relatives of virus behind Covid that even without the furin site they can infect human cells, it is a giant stride forward to known the progenitor of the virus. The mystery focus on the CGG-CGG code of the SARS-CoV-2 furin site arginine dimer. T...
