Horizontal gene transfer and recombination analysis of SARS-CoV-2 genes helps discover its close relatives and shed light on its origin

2020-12-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is among the most dangerous infectious diseases that have emerged in recent history. Human CoV strains discovered during previous SARS outbreaks have been hypothesized to pass from bats to humans using intermediate hosts, e.g. civets for SARS-CoV and camels for MERS-CoV. The discovery of an intermediate host of SARS-CoV-2 and the identification of specific mechanism of...
