Background and Objectives: Following the emergence of COVID-19 caused by the SARS-CoV2, the reasons for the emergence of the novel virus have been the subject of interest for molecular biology researchers and news agencies. This article attempted to emphasize all aspects of the emergence of this virus and discuss the latest information related to its development. Materials and Methods: From th...

Background and purpose: There are various methods for molecular detection of SARS-CoV2 genome among which, PCR-based methods are the most reliable for making diagnosis. The majority of approved PCR kits for detection of Coronavirus are based on TaqMan real-time PCR which is expensive due to incorporating fluorescent and quencher-harboring probe. The aim of this study was to design a simple and ...

Introduction: Covid-19 epidemic results from an infection caused by SARS-CoV2. Evolution-based analyses on the nucleotide sequences show that SARS-CoV2 is a member of the genus Beta-coronaviruses and its genome consists of a single-stranded RNA, encoding 16 proteins. Among the structural proteins, the nucleocapsid is the most abundant protein in virus structure, highly immunogenic, with sequenc...

The outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS ‐ CoV-2) in December 2019 has led to the epidemic of Covid-19. Recent clinical studies have shown that parts of the nervous system; Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are involved in SARS-CoV-2 infection, which is associated with a variety of neurological manifestations such as headache, dizziness, and olfactory and gustatory disorders. This study ...
