SARS-CoV-2 spike protein "spears" the host membrane with a <font color="#0060ff">'''fusion peptide'''</font> and drags the virus envelope membrane <font color="red">'''transmembrane domain'''</font> close to the host membrane, initiating fusion. This moves the virus RNA genome into the host cell, initiating infection. | SARS-CoV-2 spike protein "spears" the host membrane with a <font color="#0060ff">'''fusion peptide'''</font> and drags the virus envelope membrane <font color="red">'''transmembrane domain'''</font> close to the host membrane, initiating fusion.
