Function

SPIKE_MERS1 Attaches the virion to the cell membrane by interacting with host receptor, initiating the infection (By similarity). Interacts with host DPP4 to mediate virla entry.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099]^[1] Mediates fusion of the virion and cellular membranes by acting as a class I viral fusion protein. Under the current model, the protein has at least three conformational states: pre-fusion native state, pre-hairpin intermediate state, and post-fusion hairpin state. During viral and target cell membrane fusion, the coiled coil regions (heptad repeats) assume a trimer-of-hairpins structure, positioning the fusion peptide in close proximity to the C-terminal region of the ectodomain. The formation of this structure appears to drive apposition and subsequent fusion of viral and target cell membranes.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099] Acts as a viral fusion peptide which is unmasked following S2 cleavage occurring upon virus endocytosis.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The MERS-CoV is an emerging virus, which already infected more than 1,300 humans with high ( approximately 36%) mortality. Here, we show that m336, an exceptionally potent human anti-MERS-CoV antibody, is almost germline with only one somatic mutation in the heavy chain. The structure of Fab m336 in complex with the MERS-CoV receptor-binding domain reveals that its IGHV1-69-derived heavy chain provides more than 85% binding surface and that its epitope almost completely overlaps with the receptor-binding site. Analysis of antibodies from 69 healthy humans suggests an important role of the V(D)J recombination-generated junctional and allele-specific residues for achieving high affinity of binding at such low levels of somatic hypermutation. Our results also have important implications for development of vaccine immunogens based on the newly identified m336 epitope as well as for elucidation of mechanisms of neutralization by m336-like antibodies and their elicitation in vivo.

Junctional and allele-specific residues are critical for MERS-CoV neutralization by an exceptionally potent germline-like antibody.,Ying T, Prabakaran P, Du L, Shi W, Feng Y, Wang Y, Wang L, Li W, Jiang S, Dimitrov DS, Zhou T Nat Commun. 2015 Sep 15;6:8223. doi: 10.1038/ncomms9223.
