Both SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV viruses use human ACE2 for cell entry 10 . Due to the nature of RNA virus' rapid mutation rates, changes in the S-protein's amino acid sequence, especially in the RBD's receptor binding motif, could have significant impact on virus infectivity, pathogenicity, transmissibility, and cross-protection from previous coronavirus infection, as well as therapeutic antibody and prophylactic vaccine development. Hence, understanding the differences between SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 and their implications may offer significant scientific and practical value.
