  • The etiological agent, SARS-CoV-2, is a member of the Coronaviridae family including SARS-CoV-1 (2002-2004) and MERS-CoV (since 2012), with the sequence identity of 79.6% and 50%, respectively. (biorxiv.org)
  • Additionally, it can be argued that the kinds of matches that RUPEE does return have more added value than the current state of the art in that with equal scores it is able to return results not biased toward a structure classification hierarchy such as SCOPe or sequence clusters such as the PDB-90. (biorxiv.org)
