The spike glycoprotein of highly pathogenic human coronaviruses: structural insights for understanding infection, evolution and inhibition

Highly pathogenic human coronaviruses (CoV) including SARS‐CoV, MERS‐CoV and SARS‐CoV‐2 have emerged over the past two decades, resulting in infectious disease outbreaks that have greatly affected public health. The CoV surface spike (S) glycoprotein mediates receptor binding and membrane fusion for...
