T342 |
0-111 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In β-CoV, HE mediates viral attachment to O-Ac-SAs and its function relies on the combined CBD and RDE domains. |
T343 |
112-229 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Most β-CoVs target 9-O-Ac-SAs (type I), but certain strains switched to alternatively targeting 4-O-Ac-SAs (type II). |
T344 |
230-379 |
Sentence |
denotes |
For example, the SA-acetylesterase enzyme in BCoVs and HCoV-OC43 is known to have hemagglutinizing activities as a type of SA-9-O-acetylesterase [8]. |
T345 |
380-441 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The SA-acetylesterase is the HE surface glycoprotein in BCoV. |
T346 |
442-525 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The three-dimensional structure of BCoV HE is similar to other viral esterases [9]. |
T347 |
526-571 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The HE gene is found only in the β-CoV genus. |
T348 |
572-743 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The acetylesterase of murine CoVs differs in its substrate binding specificity from that of BCoV and HCoV-OC43, which is specific for O-acetyl residue release from SA C-9. |
T349 |
744-797 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Murine CoVs prefer to esterize 4-O-acetyl-NeuAc [64]. |
T350 |
798-907 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The β-CoV acetylesterase destroys the receptors and this specificity is similar to that of influenza viruses. |
T351 |
908-1033 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Acetylesterase activity can be inhibited by diisopropyl fluorophosphate and this agent decreases viral infection levels [65]. |
T352 |
1034-1189 |
Sentence |
denotes |
As deduced from the SA acetylesterase of HCoV-OC43 [8], the 9-O-Ac-SA species is a receptor binding determinant for erythrocytes and entry into cells [59]. |
T353 |
1190-1257 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The BCoV HE protein has dual activity of acetylesterase and HA [9]. |
T354 |
1258-1379 |
Sentence |
denotes |
BCoV widely agglutinates erythrocytes and purified HE only agglutinates Neu5,9Ac2-enriched erythrocytes of rats and mice. |
T355 |
1380-1462 |
Sentence |
denotes |
BCoV and HCoV-OC43 can agglutinate chicken erythrocytes, while purified HE cannot. |
T356 |
1463-1650 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In contrast to the HE protein, purified S glycoprotein can agglutinate chicken erythrocytes [52], indicating that the major HA is the S protein which acts as the major SA-binding protein. |
T357 |
1651-1826 |
Sentence |
denotes |
However, the role of O-Ac-SAs is not certain to be essential in receptors, and SA-binding activity may be essential only to the HE protein, but not to the S glycoprotein [54]. |
