By noticing the genetic similarity between Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS) and SARS-CoV viruses with SARS-CoV-2 and especially between SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, the aim of this research was to express the proteins of the SARS-CoV-2 virus including the spike (S), nucleocapsid (N) and other proteins in the virus and their function in entering host cells, virus replication and production on one hand, and developing possible drugs that are effective in treating this coronavirus infection by targeting theĀ above-mentioned proteins. On the other hand, the researchers are looking to offer a possible vaccine to prevent infection with this virus by using the proteins of this virus.}, keywords = {COVID-19 Disease,SARS-CoV-2,SARS-CoV-2 Viral Proteins,Possible Antiviral Treatments,Possible Vaccine}, url = {https://www.biotechrep.ir/article_108286.html}, eprint = {https://www.biotechrep.ir/article_108286_532d0e28482a21dae2a34875f3ffe2a4.pdf} }
