Spike Protein and Mysterious Hepatitis in Children (Research Hypothesis)

Course Content
Spike Protein
The spike protein is located on the outside of a coronavirus and is how SARS-CoV-2 (the coronavirus) enters human cells. Its location on the outside of the virus makes it so the immune system can recognize it easily. The spike protein is unique to SARS-CoV-2 – it doesn't look like other proteins your body makes.
