Abstract
Porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus (PHEV) is a neurotropic coronavirus and highly pathogenic in veterinary clinic. Spike (S) protein of PHEV interplays with host components to cross the plasma membrane of target cells, but characterization of its functional receptors is limited. Here, we discovered that cell-surface glycans, i.e., sialic acid (SA) and heparan sulfate (HS), act as critical interacting factors of PHEV, involving in viral attachment. As shown in glycans depletion assay, removing SA or HS from N2a cells inhibits PHEV infection. Soluble sugar monomers were utilized for competitive binding tests, and we found that both SA and HS could specifically bind to PHEV and affect the viral infectivity. Furthermore, the expression of heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs), including syndecans and glypicans, and endoglycosidase heparinase which cleaves HS were regulated by PHEV RNA replication. Together, we newly identified specificity recognition of cellular glycans and PHEV during infection, providing novel cellular targets for antiviral therapies and better understanding of pathogenesis.

Abstract
Coronaviruses are a family of enveloped, single-stranded, positive-strand RNA viruses classified within the Nidovirales order. This coronavirus family consists of pathogens of many animal species and of humans, including the recently isolated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV). This review is divided into two main parts; the first concerns the animal coronaviruses and their pathogenesis, with an emphasis on the functions of individual viral genes, and the second discusses the newly described human emerging pathogen, SARS-CoV. The coronavirus part covers (i) a description of a group of coronaviruses and the diseases they cause, including the prototype coronavirus, murine hepatitis virus, which is one of the recognized animal models for multiple sclerosis, as well as viruses of veterinary importance that infect the pig, chicken, and cat and a summary of the human viruses; (ii) a short summary of the replication cycle of coronaviruses in cell culture; (iii) the development and application of reverse genetics systems; and (iv) the roles of individual coronavirus proteins in replication and pathogenesis. The SARS-CoV part covers the pathogenesis of SARS, the developing animal models for infection, and the progress in vaccine development and antiviral therapies. The data gathered on the animal coronaviruses continue to be helpful in understanding SARS-CoV.

Abstract
A novel coronavirus has been recently identified as the causative agent of the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak that has accounted for more than 8000 infected people worldwide. This review will discuss current knowledge on coronavirus replication, pathogenesis, evolution, and vaccine strategies, as well as the most recent findings on SARS coronavirus.
