SARS-CoV-2 cellular infection scheme—1: spike protein adherence to angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) membrane receptors; 2: viral entry; 3: reverse transcription of viral RNA into cDNA; 4: cDNA transcription into mRNA coding for proteins; 5: mRNA translation into PP1a, PP1ab, and structural proteins; 6: PP1a and PP1ab cleaved by papain-like (PL) protease and main protease enzymes to form 16 non-structural proteins; 7: viral assembly; 8: virus exits the cell to infect other hosts.
