Dear editor,

We read with interest an article by McQuaid et al. [1], in this article, the authors stated that “The lipid plasma membrane has structural proteins, namely the spike protein (SP), membrane protein, small membrane protein and hemagglutinin-esterase” [1]. For this claim, the authors cited a related study, but there is not any evidence on hemagglutinin-esterase gene in that cited reference [2]. However, according to the scientific evidence the genome of SARS-CoV-2 lacks the hemagglutinin-esterase (HE) gene and it has no HE glycoprotein [3,4,5,6], thus HE has no role in neurological manifestation of COVID-19.

From the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 in December 2019, a great amount of efforts and research have been made to characterize the virus and the clinical course of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) [7]. SARS-CoV-2 as an enveloped, positive-strand RNA virus is a member of Coronaviridae family in Nidovirales order [8]. According the genetic properties Coronaviridae family is subdivided to 4 genera including: alpha, beta, gamma and deltacoronavirus [9]. In addition, betacoronavirus genus has five subgenera: Embecovirus (lineage A), Sarbecovirus (lineage B), Merbecovirus (lineage C), Nobecovirus (lineage D) and Hibecovirus [10].

Between human coronaviruses, OC43-CoV and HKU1-CoV are considered as betacoronaviruses of linage A, however, both SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 are betacoronaviruses of linage B and also MERS-CoV is a member of betacoronavirus of C lineage [11].

Between coronaviruses, betacoronaviruses lineage A including: bovine-CoV, OC43-CoV, HKU1-CoV, mouse hepatitis virus(MHV), harbor HE which acts functionally like spike (S) protein [12, 13]. The gene of HE is transmitted from influenza virus C/D to betacoronavirus lineage A progenitor via horizontal gene as 9-O-Ac-SA–specific hemagglutinin-esterase-fusion (HEF) [11]. The HE in betacoronaviruses lineage A does not show activity of membrane fusion unlike HEF in influenza virus C/D [11]. SARS-CoV-2 as a betacoronavirus of Sarbecovirus subgenus comprises four structural proteins spike (S), envelope (E), membrane protein (M), and nucleoprotein (N) and lacks HE [6].

In conclusion, HE gene is absent in betacoronaviruses such as SARS-CoV-2, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV, thus HE has no role in neurological manifestation of COVID-19, however, some betacoronaviruses in subgenera Embecovirus have HE.

血凝素酯酶蛋白在 COVID-19 神经系统表现中的作用

亲爱的编辑,

我们饶有兴趣地阅读了 McQuaid 等人的一篇文章。[1],在这篇文章中,作者指出“脂质质膜具有结构蛋白,即刺突蛋白(SP)、膜蛋白、小膜蛋白和血凝素酯酶”[1]。对于这一说法,作者引用了一项相关研究,但该引用的参考文献中没有关于血凝素酯酶基因的任何证据 [2]。然而,根据科学证据,SARS-CoV-2的基因组缺乏血凝素酯酶(HE)基因,也没有HE糖蛋白[3,4,5,6],因此HE在COVID的神经系统表现中没有作用-19.

自 2019 年 12 月出现 SARS-CoV-2 以来,已经进行了大量的努力和研究来表征该病毒和 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的临床过程[7]。SARS-CoV-2 作为一种有包膜的正链 RNA 病毒是Nidovirales冠状病毒科的成员[8]。根据遗传特性,冠状病毒科被细分为 4 个属,包括:α、β、γ 和 δ冠状病毒[9]。此外,β冠状病毒属有五个亚属:Embecovirus(A系)、Sarbecovirus(B系)、Merbecovirus(C系)、Nobecovirus(D系)和Hibecovirus  [10]。

在人类冠状病毒中,OC43-CoV 和 HKU1-CoV 被认为是 A 系 β 冠状病毒,然而,SARS-CoV 和 SARS-CoV-2 都是 B 系 β 冠状病毒,MERS-CoV 也是 C 系 β 冠状病毒的成员。 11]。

在冠状病毒之间,β冠状病毒谱系 A 包括:牛冠状病毒、OC43-冠状病毒、HKU1-CoV、小鼠肝炎病毒 (MHV)、在功能上类似于刺突 (S) 蛋白的港口 HE [12, 13]。HE基因通过水平基因作为9 - O -Ac-SA-特异性血凝素酯酶融合(HEF)从流感病毒C/D传播到β冠状病毒谱系A祖细胞[11]。与流感病毒 C/D 中的 HEF 不同,β 冠状病毒谱系 A 中的 HE 不显示膜融合活性 [11]。SARS-CoV-2 作为Sarbecovirus亚属的 β 冠状病毒包含四种结构蛋白棘突(S)、包膜 (E)、膜蛋白 (M) 和核蛋白 (N),并且缺乏 HE [6]。

总之,SARS-CoV-2、MERS-CoV和SARS-CoV等β冠状病毒中不存在HE基因,因此HE在COVID-19的神经系统表现中没有作用,但是,Embecovirus亚属中的一些β冠状病毒具有HE。
