Severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is an enveloped single-stranded RNA virus of the Coronaviridae family. Coronaviruses share structural similarities and are composed of 16 non-structural proteins and 4 structural proteins: peak (S), envelope (E), membrane (M), and nucleocapsid (N).
Coronaviruses cause illnesses with symptoms ranging from mild to severe common cold, such as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 1,2.
SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted from person to person mainly through respiratory droplets, while indirect transmission through contaminated surfaces is also possible3-6. The virus accesses host cells through the receptor for angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which is more abundant in the lungs7,8.
