Adaptive Evolution of MERS-CoV to Species Variation in DPP4

Adaptive Evolution of MERS-CoV to Species Variation in DPP4

Summary: Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) likely originated in bats and passed to humans through dromedary camels; however, the genetic mechanisms underlying cross-species adaptation remain poorly understood. Variation in the host receptor, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4), can b...
