Novel Polybasic Cleavage Site in SARS-CoV-2 Genome Is Likely to Induce a Major Change in the RNA Secondary Structure

2020-04-30

Abstract excerpt

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome CoronaVirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has claimed nearly 180,000 lives and continues to spread. There are currently no approved medications or vaccines for this new coronavirus. Studies have shown that the positive RNA genome of SARS-CoV-2 contains unique features, including a 12-base sequence inserted between the two subunits of viral receptor protein Spike. This inserted sequence facilitat...
