Immunogenicity and structures of a rationally designed prefusion MERS-CoV spike antigen (2017, background): “Coronaviruses infect a wide range of avian and mammalian species, including humans (1).”
Hosts and Sources of Endemic Human Coronaviruses (2018, background): “Comprehensive studies suggest that the large lineages in the mammalian CoV phylogeny have primordial links to small mammals, focused but not limited to bats (Drexler et al., 2014; Vijaykrishna et al., 2007; Woo et al., 2009a, b).”
Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus neutralising serum antibodies in dromedary camels: a comparative serological study (2013, background): “9 Human coronavirus OC43 has recent common ancestry with bovine coronaviruses.”
Commentary: Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV): Announcement of the Coronavirus Study Group (2013, background): “From what we already know of coronavirus biology (14) and from the accumulating evidence for this particular virus (3, 9, 13), bats appear to be the natural host, and it would be tempting to assume that these animals are also the immediate source.”
Zoonotic origins of human coronaviruses (2020, background): “Interestingly, the nucleotide analogue Remdesivir is known to suppress CoV replication through inhibition of this exoribonuclease and the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase [70] .”
Discovery of Seven Novel Mammalian and Avian Coronaviruses in the Genus Deltacoronavirus Supports Bat Coronaviruses as the Gene Source of Alphacoronavirus and Betacoronavirus and Avian Coronaviruses as the Gene Source of Gammacoronavirus and Deltacoronavirus (2012, neutral): “This phenomenon of host specificity is similar to that observed in bats, in which different genera are hosts of different CoVs (26, 45, 51, 52).”
Further Evidence for Bats as the Evolutionary Source of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (2017, background): “It is also parsimonious with the high purifying selection observed across the genome of 2c viruses (which argues against receptor adaptation via drift or selection) and with previous reports citing recombination in association with host switching for other coronaviruses (36) (37) (38) .”
Epidemiology, Genetic Recombination, and Pathogenesis of Coronaviruses (2016, background): “Furthermore, the large RNA genome in CoV allows for extra plasticity in genome modification by mutations and recombinations, thereby increasing the probability for intraspecies variability, interspecies 'host jump', and novel CoVs to emerge under the right conditions [68] [69] [70] .”
Evidence for adaptive evolution in the receptor-binding domain of seasonal coronaviruses OC43 and 229e (2020, neutral): “This spawns much of the diversity within and between coronaviruses species (Woo et al. 2009; Hon et al. 2008), and can contribute to the virus’ ability to jump species-barriers, allowing a previously zoonotic CoV to infect and replicate in humans.”
Can the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Affect the Eyes? A Review of Coronaviruses and Ocular Implications in Humans and Animals (2020, background): “The ability of CoVs to obtain mutations which facilitate the transmission between animal to humans has made it a zoonotic pathogen of concern.(13) In fact, the recent emergence of human CoVs capable of causing respiratory failure, such as SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV has had the origins traced back to anim”
Identification of a novel coronavirus causing severe pneumonia in human: a descriptive study (2020, background): “Sequence homology analysis of the viral genome showed that the CoV identified in this study is distinct from any of the known human CoVs, including SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV.”
Coronavirus Genomics and Bioinformatics Analysis (2010, background): “This huge diversity of coronaviruses in bats and birds has made them excellent gene pools for coronaviruses in these four genera [55].”
