主 题:SARS-CoV-2 Pangolin Recombination Diversity Sequencing mtDNA
摘 要:Understanding the zoonotic origin and evolution history of SARS-CoV-2 will provide critical insights for alerting and preventing future outbreaks.A significant gap remains for the possible role of pangolins as a reservoir of SARS-CoV-2 related coronaviruses(SC2r-CoVs).Here,we screened SC2r-CoVs in 172 samples from 163 pangolin individuals of four species,and detected positive signals in muscles of four Manis javanica and,for the first time,one *** analysis of pangolin mitochondrial DNA traced their origins from Southeast *** in-solution hybridization capture sequencing,we assembled a partial pangolin SC2r-CoV(pangolin-CoV)genome sequence of 22895 bp(MP20)from the *** *** analyses revealed MP20 was very closely related to pangolin-CoVs that were identified in *** seized by Guangxi Customs.A genetic contribution of bat coronavirus to pangolin-CoVs via recombination was *** analysis revealed that the genetic diversity of pangolin-CoVs is substantially higher than previously *** the potential infectivity of pangolin-CoVs,the high genetic diversity of pangolin-CoVs alerts the ecological risk of zoonotic evolution and transmission of pathogenic SC2r-CoVs.
