SARS virus

SARS virus. Artwork of a severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) virus particle. The SARS virus is a type of coronavirus, other types of which cause the common cold and a type of gastroenteritis. Coronaviruses take their name from their crown (corona) of surface proteins (red). These are made of glycoprotein, that binds to the cells in the viruss host, allowing it to enter them. The virus is coated in a membrane (green) that it derives from the cells that it invades. SARS is a fatal lung disease that first appeared in China in late 2002, and spread around the world through air travel

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of a SARS virus particle, providing a visual representation of this severe acute respiratory syndrome. The artwork beautifully captures the essence of this coronavirus, which belongs to a family known for causing common colds and gastroenteritis. Its name "coronavirus" derives from the crown-like surface proteins that adorn its outer layer, depicted here in striking red hues. Glycoprotein, an essential component of these surface proteins, enables the virus to bind with host cells and gain entry into them. Encased within a vibrant green membrane derived from invaded cells, this particular strain of SARS virus is responsible for a fatal lung disease that emerged in China during late 2002. Its rapid spread across the globe was facilitated by air travel. This illustration not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also provides valuable insights into virology and microbiology. It highlights key elements such as antigens and capsids while shedding light on the biology behind viral epidemics like SARS. Science Photo Library presents this thought-provoking image print as part of their extensive collection on diseases and viruses. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the scientific significance and aesthetic beauty found within our microscopic world – reminding us how crucial it is to understand these pathogens in order to combat future outbreaks effectively.
