3 Figure 2 Methods of virus detection applied to novel coronavirus discovery. A: Vero kidney epithelial cells infected by Middle East respiratory syndrome–coronavirus (MERS-CoV) showing cytopathic effect in the form of cell shrinkage and syncytium formation. B: Electron micrograph of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) showing characteristic enveloped virus particles with protruding spikes. C: Gel electrophoresis image of DNA amplified by coronavirus pol gene-derived consensus primer RT-PCR. Lane 1, bacteriophage ΦX174 DNA HaeIII digest marker; 2, negative sample; 3, negative control; 4, positive control; 5, nasopharyngeal aspirate sample with human coronavirus HKU1. D: Phylogenetic analysis of selected human and animal coronaviruses on the basis of the pol gene by the neighbor joining method. Lineage A betacoronavirus (A), lineage B betacoronavirus (B), and lineage C betacoronavirus (C).
