Insight towards the effect of the multibasic cleavage site of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein on cellular proteases
2020-04-25
Abstract excerpt
Severe respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection presents an immense global health problem. Spike (S) protein of coronavirus is the primary determinant of its entry into the host as it consists of both receptor binding and fusion domain. While tissue tropism, host range, and pathogenesis of coronavirus are primarily controlled by the interaction of S protein with the cell receptor, it is possible t...
