Interaction of SARS-CoV spike protein with lipid rafts of host cells during viral entry

SARS-CoV entry is mediated by S protein. ACE2 has been identified as its receptor. During viral entry, interactions between a virus and host cell surface receptors play a key role in successful infection. In addition, many viruses such as HIV-1, select special membrane domains named as lipid rafts...
