Serine protease-driven entry and S2 ' cleavage flexibility of feline coronavirus during feline enterocyte infections. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens
Coronaviruses not only hijack host cells to serve as viral factories but also exploit host proteolytic systems to activate their spike (S) protein, the key glycoprotein mediating receptor binding and membrane fusion.

Rethinking the drivers of coronavirus virulence and pathogenesis; toward an understanding of the dynamic world of mutations, indels, and recombination within the alphacoronaviruses [PDF]

mBio
Alphacoronaviruses are widespread but understudied in comparison to betacoronaviruses. Within the alphacoronaviruses is the species Alphacoronavirus-1, which comprises distinct viruses of cats, dogs, and pigs, along with a separate species that infects ...

Establishment of one-step duplex TaqMan real-time PCR for detection of feline coronavirus and panleukopenia virus [PDF]

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology
A comparative genomic analysis of feline coronavirus (FCoV) and feline panleukopenia virus (FPLV) was performed. Based on the conserved regions of the two viruses, specific probes and real-time PCR (qPCR) primers were designed, and a duplex TaqMan qPCR ...

In Vitro Evaluation of Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Involvement in Feline Coronavirus Infection [PDF]

Viruses
Feline coronavirus (FCoV) is an alphacoronavirus (αCoV) that causes moderate or chronic asymptomatic infection in cats. However, in a single infected cat, FCoV can modify its cellular tropism by acquiring the ability to infect macrophages, resulting in ...

Whole genome characterization of feline coronaviruses in Thailand: evidence of genetic recombination and mutation M1058L in pathotype switch [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Feline coronavirus (FCoV) is a significant pathogen that infects the feline population worldwide. FCoV can cause mild enteric disease and a fatal systemic disease called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). In this study, a cross-sectional survey of FCoV
