Proteolysis of Sars-Associated Coronavirus Spike Glycoprotein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) mediates attachment, receptor engagement and entry via its spike glycoprotein (S). S-dependent viral entry requires the presence of a primary receptor, angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ACE2), while the C-type lectins, DC-SIGN, DC-SIGNR, and LSECtin act as attachment factors, promoting ...

Closing coronavirus spike glycoproteins by structure-guided design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The recent spillover of SARS-CoV-2 in the human population resulted in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which has already caused 4.9 million infections and more than 326,000 fatalities. To initiate infection the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) glycoprotein promotes attachment to the host cell surface, determining host and tissue tropism, and fusion of the viral and ...

SARS-CoV-2 Spike Expression at the Surface of Infected Primary Human Airway Epithelial Cells

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Different serological assays were rapidly generated to study humoral responses against the SARS-CoV-2 Spike glycoprotein. Due to the intrinsic difficulty of working with SARS-CoV-2 authentic virus, most serological assays use recombinant forms of the ...

Immunogenicity of the spike glycoprotein of Bat SARS-like coronavirus [PDF]

open access: yesVirologica Sinica, 2010
A group of SARS-like coronaviruses (SL-CoV) have been identified in horseshoe bats. Despite SL-CoVs and SARS-CoV share identical genome structure and high-level sequence similarity, SL-CoV does not bind to the same cellular receptor as for SARS-CoV and the N-terminus of the S proteins only share 64% amino acid identity, suggesting there are fundamental

Modeling the structure of SARS-CoV spike glycoprotein

open access: yes, 2004
The S1 and S2 subunits of the spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV coronavirus have been modelled, even though the corresponding amino acid sequences were not suitable for tertiary structure predictions with conventional homology and/or threading procedures ...

Expression of SARS-coronavirus spike glycoprotein in Pichia pastoris [PDF]

open access: yesVirus Genes, 2008
To establish a rapid and economical method for the expression of viral proteins in high yield and purity by Pichia pastoris, the S protein of the SARS-CoV was selected in this study. Six S glycoprotein fragments were expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 and yeast KM71H strains.

Budding of Rabies Virus Particles in the Absence of the Spike Glycoprotein [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 1996
Budding of enveloped viruses from cellular membranes is believed to de pend on the presence of transmembrane spike proteins interacting with cytoplasmic virus components. To address the mechanism of rhabdovirus budding, we generated rabies virus mutants deficient for the glycoprotein G or the G cytoplasmic tail.

Bat and pangolin coronavirus spike glycoprotein structures provide insights into SARS-CoV-2 evolution

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The spike glycoprotein in coronaviruses is a key viral protein for cross-species transmission and infection. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structures of the spike ectodomains from bat and pangolin coronaviruses, compare them with the available ...

Molecular docking and dynamic simulation of conserved B cell epitope of SARS-CoV-2 glycoprotein Indonesian isolates: an immunoinformatic approach [version 1; peer review: 3 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2021
Background: An immunoinformatic approach may be useful to investigate the conserved region in the spike glycoprotein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Indonesia isolates.
