On the molecular mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 retention in the upper respiratory tract

K. A. Paris, U. Santiago, C. J. Camacho

This study identifies a pH-dependent receptor binding mechanism in SARS-CoV-2 that enhances ACE2 receptor retention, leading to prolonged viral shedding and transmission.

Loss of pH switch unique to SARS-CoV2 supports unfamiliar virus pathology

C. J. Camacho, K. A. Paris, U. Santiago

This paper analyzes the pH-switch difference between SARS-CoV1 and SARS-CoV2, showing how the loss of this switch in CoV2 allows prolonged ACE2 receptor binding, contributing to higher transmission and pathogenicity.
