[Title] Newly discovered betacoronavirus, Wuhan 2019-2020
A previously unknown betacoronavirus was detected in patients during an outbreak of respiratory illnesses, including atypical pneumonia, that started mid-December 2019 in the city of Wuhan, the capital of Central China's Hubei Province.
The newly discovered coronavirus is similar to some of the betacoronaviruses detected in bats, but it is distinct from SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV.
The genome of the newly discovered CoV consists of a single, positive-stranded RNA that is approximately 30k nucleotides long. The overall genome organization of the newly discovered CoV is similar to that of other coronaviruses. The newly sequenced virus genome encodes the open reading frames (ORFs) common to all betacoronaviruses, including ORF1 ab that encodes many enzymatic proteins, the spike-surface glycoprotein (S), the small envelope protein (E), the matrix protein (M), and the nucleocapsid protein (N), as well as several nonstructural proteins.
