Crystal Structure of Bovine Coronavirus Spike Protein Lectin
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background: Coronavirus spike protein N-terminal domains (NTDs) bind sugar or protein receptors. Results:We determined crystal structure of bovine coronavirus NTD and located its sugar-binding site using mutagenesis. Conclusion: Bovine coronavirus NTD shares structural folds and sugar-binding sites with human galectins and has subtle yet functionally important differences from protein-binding NTD of mouse coronavirus. Significance: This study explores origin and evolution of coronavirus NTDs.

Crystal structure of bovine coronavirus spike protein lectin domain.
The spike protein N-terminal domains (NTDs) of bovine coronavirus (BCoV) and mouse hepatitis coronavirus (MHV) recognize sugar and protein receptors, respectively, despite their significant sequence homology. We recently determined the crystal structure of MHV NTD complexed with its protein receptor murine carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1), which surprisingly r...
متن کاملCrystal structure of mouse coronavirus receptor-binding domain complexed with its murine receptor.
Coronaviruses have evolved diverse mechanisms to recognize different receptors for their cross-species transmission and host-range expansion. Mouse hepatitis coronavirus (MHV) uses the N-terminal domain (NTD) of its spike protein as its receptor-binding domain. Here we present the crystal structure of MHV NTD complexed with its receptor murine carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion mole...

متن کاملPhylogenetic investigation of enteric bovine coronavirus in Ireland reveals partitioning between European and global strains
BACKGROUND Bovine coronavirus is a primary cause of neonatal calf diarrhea worldwide, and is also associated with acute diarrhea in adult cattle during the winter season. There are no reports on molecular characterization of bovine coronavirus in Ireland, and little data exists apart from serological studies. FINDINGS In this study, 11 neonatal (mean age 9 days) calf BCoV strains from the sou...
متن کاملProduction, characterization, and uses of monoclonal antibodies against recombinant nucleoprotein of elk coronavirus.
This is the first report of the production of monoclonal antibodies against elk coronavirus. The nucleoprotein gene of elk coronavirus was amplified by PCR and was cloned and expressed in a prokaryotic expression vector. Recombinant nucleocapsid protein was used to immunize mice for the production of hybridomas. Twelve hybridomas that produced monoclonal antibodies against the nucleocapsid prot...
