Özet
The structure of β-coronavirus MERS-CoV S1-CTD demonstrated an interesting subject of how two structurally similar viral RBDs recognize different protein receptors. Same as SARS-CoV, the S1-CTD, MERS-CoV S1-CTD viruses also contains two subdomains, but, in contrast to the loopdominated MERS-CoV, RBM contains a 4-stranded antiparallel β-sheet, showing a relatively flat surface to bind DPP4. The protein sequences were obtained from NCBI web sites, and the proteins of COVID-19, such as protein sequences, were applied for analyzing the conserved domain. Some proteins were also utilized for constructing 3-D structures via homology modeling. We also show that Nterminal deletions of alpha 2 that no longer block STAT1 nuclear import. Covid-19 spike protein structures, along with peptide-like inhibitor structure of the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein, including small-molecule inhibitors, have been simulated via Molecular dynamic and docking methods. Several genomes of various coronaviruses using BAST and MAFFT software have been evaluated, and a few genomes have been selected.
