Beschreibung von S protein (Human betacoronavirus 2c EMC/2012) Protein

The spike protein is one of the four major structural proteins of the coronavirus. Coronaviruses primarily cause respiratory and enteric diseases in mammals and birds. Coronavirus symptoms include rhinorrhea, sneezing, cough, nasal obstruction, bronchitis and so on. In 2003, a novel coronavirus which is known as SARS coronavirus cause the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic that began in Asia in 2002.Coronavirus entry is mediated by the viral spike protein. The 180-kDa oligomeric spike protein of the murine coronavirus mouse hepatitis virus strain A59 is posttranslationally cleaved into an S1 receptor binding unit and an S2 membrane fusion unit. Both biochemical and functional data show that the coronavirus spike protein is a class I viral fusion protein.

HCoV-EMC is a novel coronavirus isolated from a Saudi patient presenting with pneumonia and renal failure in June 2012. Genome sequencing showed that this virus belongs to the group C species of the genus betacoronavirus and phylogenetically related to the bat coronaviruses HKU4 and HKU5 previously found in lesser bamboo bat and Japanese Pipistrelle bat of Hong Kong respectively. HCoV-EMC has been identified as a highly lethal virus that could be passed from animals to humans very easily. The virus, like other coronaviridae, has the potential to infect bats and pigs in addition to humans. HCoV-EMC is related to the causative agent of SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome), SARS coronavirus. and also may be even more infectious as it does not use the human receptor protein ACE2. The receptor used by HCov-EMC has not been identified. Symptoms of infection include kidney failure and severe pneumonia. The animal source has still not been identified but may circulate among populations of bats.
