Researchers have discovered a virus that could enter human cells in a similar way to COVID-19. But they caution it's much ...
A newly discovered bat coronavirus uses the same cell-surface protein to gain entry into human cells as the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19, raising the possibility that it could someday spread ...
One of the viruses isolated from these bats, called HKU5-CoV-2, is related to the MERS virus and can enter cells using a protein called the ACE2 receptor, which is found on the cells of many birds ...
The virus that causes COVID-19 has been very good at mutating to keep infecting people—so good that most antibody treatments ...
Viruses like the one that causes COVID-19 constantly mutate, rendering many antibody treatments ineffective. A Stanford-led ...
