Professor Lalita Guprasad points out the identifying properties of the corona virus, which has the potential to cause infections in humans.
The whole world is trying to develop a vaccine to fight the Corona virus epidemic, a professor at the University of Hyderabad in India has made an important discovery that could help in the design of antibodies capable of dealing with the virus. May be. Professor Lalita Gruprasad has identified specific features that help identify corona viruses that are capable of infecting humans.
A stork corona virus protein called a spike forms a crown-like appearance of corona that is specifically attached to a substance-changing enzyme (ACE-2) receptor in the human body. An important question that has been pointed out is what changes can occur in the stork corona virus genome and spike protein during evolution that cause the virus to infect humans? Professor Grooprasad at the university’s School of Chemistry has presented his findings after analyzing the human genome and the complete genome and spike protein of the stork corona virus.
Studies have shown that only ACE-2 is present in the protein of the SARS corona virus spike, whereas this sequence is not present in the BAT SARS corona virus which is unable to cause human infection. It is hoped that these results could help in the development of vaccines. The study also warns that the genomes of some bat stork corona viruses are still changing and that they too may have the potential to infect humans and pose a potential threat to humans in the future.
The number of people infected with the corona virus worldwide has risen to 3,727,893, while the death toll has risen to 258,341. Are still being treated in hospitals, of which 49,248 are in critical condition and 1,242,407 have recovered.
The United States is by far the most infected country with the corona virus, not only the corona patient but also The death toll from the corona virus in the United States has risen to 72,271 so far. S total number of sick has 12 lakh 37 thousand 633
