SARS-CoV-2 gained the unique spike protein S1-N-Terminal Domain from the promising pangolins mixing vessel: A novel clue for the pandemic outbreak

2021-07-16

Abstract excerpt

The clue behind the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 remains a huge debate among the virologist, policymakers, and general public, while the gain-of-function hypothesizes mostly focused on the furin cleavage site and receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the spike (S) protein. Here, we report that the SARS-CoV-2 gained the novel human-specific spike protein S1-N-Terminal Domain (S1-NTD) (Type-I) which is present only in SARS-Co...
