  • PubMed Abstract: 

    Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and the pangolin MERS-like coronavirus MjHKU4r-CoV-1 employ dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) as an entry receptor. MjHKU4r-CoV-1 could infect transgenic mice expressing human DPP4. To understand the mechanism of MjHKU4r-CoV-1 entry into cells, we determined the crystal structures of the receptor binding domain (RBD) of MjHKU4r-CoV-1 spike protein bound to human DPP4 (hDPP4) and Malayan pangolin DPP4 (MjDPP4), respectively. The overall hDPP4-binding mode of MjHKU4r-CoV-1 RBD is similar to that of MERS-CoV RBD. MjHKU4r-CoV-1 RBD shows higher binding affinity to hDPP4 compared to the bat MERS-like coronavirus Ty-BatCoV-HKU4. Via swapping residues between MjHKU4r-CoV-1 RBD and Ty-BatCoV-HKU4 RBD, we identified critical determinants on MjHKU4r-CoV-1 that are responsible for virus usage of hDPP4. Our study suggests that MjHKU4r-CoV-1 is more adapted to the human receptor compared to the bat HKU4 coronavirus and highlights the potential of virus emergence into the human population.
