İndir "Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 structure"

As of March 17, there are over 180.000 people infected worldwide by the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which can cause the coronavirus respiratory disease COVID-19. Recently the WHO named the outbreak a pandemic and now globally cases are rising sharply, outstripping the Chinese cases. As the outbreak of the disease is reaching a high number of countries all over the world, the general public awareness and scientific interest are also on the rise. Currently, the virus virulence, how it is transmitted between humans and the possible treatments of the disease are being actively studied. As there is already a lot of information available, we have here gathered the known information on the molecular organization and structure of the virus, thus creating a dynamic and scientific accurate 3D animation of SARS-CoV-2! We hope you like it! If so, please support our work by subscribing to our channel and visit our website focused on 3D animations of diverse biological processes: http://visual.biolution.net. Thank you! Correction: The video mentions that ACE2 cleaves the spike protein, however a publication published on March 5, 2020 showed that cleavage by the protease TPMSSR2 is required for priming the spike protein for viral entry: https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0092867420302294 Thanks to Mikail Dogan, norm1124 and Levent Cavas for pointing this out! We also apologise for referring to the hemagglutinin protein, which is of SARS-CoV. Instead SARS-CoV-2 contains a so called M Protein in the envelope. A correct Figure is here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7097337/figure/Fig3/ Thanks to colicinK and Mike Sauder for pointing this out!
