 <tr><td><div class='scrolling '>'''Coronavirus Spike Protein Membrane Fusion'''<br>
 ''by Eric Martz''<br>
-SARS-CoV-2 spike protein undergoes a dramatic conformational rearrangement that plays a central role in fusing the coronavirus membrane with the host cell membrane. It "spears" the host membrane with a <font color="#0060ff">'''fusion peptide'''</font> and drags the virus envelope membrane <font color="red">'''transmembrane domain'''</font> to contact the host membrane, initiating fusion. This moves the virus RNA genome into the host cell, initiating fusion.
