T124 |
0-84 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The genomic sequence of MERS-CoV was closely related to bat CoVs HKU4 and HKU5 [18]. |
T125 |
85-240 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Bat CoVs that are evolutionarily closer to MERS-CoV, sharing ∼75% nucleotide sequence homology and using the same DPP4 receptor, were also identified [32]. |
T126 |
241-423 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Although bats are the evolutionary reservoir host and bat CoVs serve as the gene pool of MERS-CoV, humans acquire MERS-CoV from diseased dromedary camels, but not directly from bats. |
T127 |
424-480 |
Sentence |
denotes |
These camels are the natural reservoir host of MERS-CoV. |
T128 |
481-556 |
Sentence |
denotes |
MERS-CoVs isolated from dromedaries are identical to those found in humans. |
T129 |
557-716 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Experimental infection of dromedary camels with MERS-CoV results in mild disease, shedding large quantities of the virus from the upper respiratory tract [33]. |
T130 |
717-883 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In addition, other non-camelid domestic animals in close contact with infected camels, including sheep, goats, a cow, and donkeys, are also infected by MERS-CoV [34]. |
T131 |
884-1014 |
Sentence |
denotes |
These domestic animals could also pose a risk to humans and should, therefore, be included in the MERS-CoV surveillance programme. |
