Background |
There are seven human coronaviruses have been identified. MERS-CoV is one of the species of these coronavirus (β group). MERS-CoV is called the Middle East respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus, which infects the bats and human. Because the crown-like spikes on the surface of virus, they are named for coronaviruses. The spike protein controled the infection of target cells and it facilitated entry into cells by binding the DPP4 receptors. |
