Abstract

Corona viruses are enveloped viruses possessing a positive-sense single stranded RNA genome and a capsid with helical symmetry. These viruses have the largest genome (26 to 32 kilobases) among RNA viruses. These viruses were termed Corona virus due to their crown-like morphology under electron microscope. Corona viruses infect humans, other mammals, and birds and can cause respiratory, enteric, hepatic, anCorona viruses are enveloped viruses possessing a positive-sense single stranded RNA genome and a capsid with helical symmetry.
