The species Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus: classifying 2019-nCoV and naming it SARS-CoV-2
Alexander E. Gorbalenya,Susan C. Baker,Ralph S. Baric,Raoul J. de Groot,Christian Drosten,Anastasia A. Gulyaeva,Bart L. Haagmans,Chris Lauber,Andrey M. Leontovich,Benjamin W. Neuman,Dmitry Penzar,Stanley Perlman,Leo L.M. Poon,Dmitry V. Samborskiy,Igor A. Sidorov,Isabel Sola,John Ziebuhr +16 more
TL;DR: The independent zoonotic transmission of SARS-CoV and SARS -CoV-2 highlights the need for studying viruses at the species level to complement research focused on individual pathogenic viruses of immediate significance.

TL;DR: The Coronavirus Study Group (CSG) of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses assessed the novelty of the human pathogen tentatively named 2019-nCoV and formally recognizes this virus as a sister to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of an essential nucleotidylating activity associated with a newly delineated conserved domain in the RNA polymerase-containing protein of all nidoviruses
Kathleen C. Lehmann,Anastasia A. Gulyaeva,Jessika C. Zevenhoven-Dobbe,George M.C. Janssen,Mark Ruben,Hermen S. Overkleeft,Peter A. van Veelen,Dmitry V. Samborskiy,Alexander A. Kravchenko,Andrey M. Leontovich,Igor A. Sidorov,Eric J. Snijder,Clara C. Posthuma,Alexander E. Gorbalenya,Alexander E. Gorbalenya +14 more
TL;DR: Bioinformatics analysis of non-structural protein 9 of the arterivirus equine arteritis virus revealed a nidoviral signature domain (genetic marker) that is N-terminally adjacent to the RdRp and has no apparent homologs elsewhere, and is proposed to have nucleotidylation activity.
Journal Article
[GeneBee-NET: An Internet based server for biopolymer structure analysis]
L I Brodskiĭ,V V Ivanov,Ia L Kalaĭdzidis,Andrey M. Leontovich,V. K. Nikolaev,S I Feranchuk,V. A. Drachev +6 more
TL;DR: A network server providing biopolymer structure databank retrieval as well as some other biocomputing procedures for Internet users is described, and a "matrix-free" (correlation) method is proposed for sequence homology retrieval.
Journal ArticleDOI
