Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the present issue, we will focus on studies aiming at:
- Innate immune response against coronaviruses, also including ssRNA viruses belonging to other families of viruses, PRR and PAMPS identification, inflammatory response and its regulation, and virus escape strategies.
- Adaptive immune responses for vaccines development against anti-SARS-CoV-2 and new strategies for vaccine development.
- Tropism of coronaviruses, including the role of glycosylation.
- Biochemical, structural and functional characterization of SARS-CoV-2 gene products.
