Title: Homologous protein domains in SARS-CoV-2 and measles, mumps and rubella viruses: preliminary evidence that MMR vaccine might provide protection against COVID-19
  • Document date: 2020_4_10
  • ID: nd5r4yt4_14
    Snippet: Given known similarities in the glycoprotein folds of paramyxoviruses and coronaviruses [Walls et al., 2017] , we undertook amino acid sequence homology searches for measles and mumps viruses, as well as rubella, the third component of the MMR vaccine. Intriguingly, we identified homologous domains in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the COVID-19 causing virus, with rubella virus as well as the two paramyxoviruses......
