Target Information
Feline coronavirus spike glycoprotein (S) is a key surface protein that mediates viral entry by binding to host cell receptors and facilitating membrane fusion. It is highly variable and plays a crucial role in viral tropism and virulence. In veterinary medicine, the S protein is used as a target for developing diagnostic assays, such as ELISA, to detect antibodies against FCoV. It is also essential for vaccine development, as it induces strong immune responses and is a major antigenic component of the virus. Studying the S protein helps elucidate the pathogenesis of feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) and feline enteric coronavirus (FECV) infections.
