COVID19 Detailed Information on Symptoms, Pathology and progression.
The S (spine or spike) proteins (shown sticking out like mushroom stalks from the round virus) have high homology with the SARS virus. These are the proteins that make up the “key” that binds with the ACE2 receptors in humans to enter the cell.
This contributes to the organ failure we see with infected persons as it drives the virus into the cells of the lungs and other organs such as the heart and kidneys which also have ACE2 receptors.
