Antiviral Activity of Graphene Oxide–Silver Nanocomposites Against Murine Betacoronavirus
Background The high infectivity of coronaviruses has led to increased interest in developing new strategies to prevent virus spread. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and graphene oxide (GO) have attracted much attention in the antiviral field.

Conserved Characteristics of NMPylation Activities of Alpha- and Betacoronavirus NiRAN Domains
There is strong evidence that coronaviruses and other large nidoviruses evolved a number of unique enzymatic activities, including an additional RdRp-associated NiRAN domain, that are conserved in nidoviruses but not in most other RNA viruses.

Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus: another zoonotic betacoronavirus causing SARS-like disease [PDF]
The source of the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic was traced to wildlife market civets and ultimately to bats. Subsequent hunting for novel coronaviruses (CoVs) led to the discovery of two additional human and over 40 animal CoVs ...

Porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus (PHEV) replicates in the upper respiratory tract and tonsils of pigs. Using an air–liquid interface porcine respiratory epithelial cells (ALI-PRECs) culture system, we demonstrated that PHEV disrupts ...

Conserved structures and dynamics in 5′-proximal regions of Betacoronavirus RNA genomes
Betacoronaviruses are a genus within the Coronaviridae family of RNA viruses. They are capable of infecting vertebrates and causing epidemics as well as global pandemics in humans.

Genomic characterization and cross-species transmission potential of hedgehog coronavirus [PDF]
In the 21st century, three betacoronaviruses (SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2) have emerged in humans worldwide as a result of animal spillover, causing severe respiratory infections and resulting in more than seven million deaths.

Betacoronavirus-specific alternate splicing [PDF]
AbstractViruses can subvert a number of cellular processes in order to block innate antiviral responses, and many viruses interact with cellular splicing machinery. SARS-CoV-2 infection was shown to suppress global mRNA splicing, and at least 10 SARS-CoV-2 proteins bind specifically to one or more human RNAs.

Genomic Feature Analysis of Betacoronavirus Provides Insights Into SARS and COVID-19 Pandemics
In December 2019, the world awoke to a new betacoronavirus strain named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Betacoronavirus consists of A, B, C and D subgroups.

Seasonality of Common Human Coronaviruses, United States, 2014–2021
The 4 common types of human coronaviruses (HCoVs)—2 alpha (HCoV-NL63 and HCoV-229E) and 2 beta (HCoV-HKU1 and HCoV-OC43)—generally cause mild upper respiratory illness.
