Virology
Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses known for causing respiratory illnesses in humans and animals, with SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2 being notable members. They are enveloped viruses with single-stranded RNA genomes, and their classification is primarily based on their genetic structure, replication mechanisms, and the diseases they cause. Understanding coronaviruses requires an exploration of their taxonomy and the processes through which they replicate and synthesize proteins within host cells.
