Epstein Barr CD21 (CR2 receptor)
Coronaviridae
Group 1
 Porcine TGEVa Porcine APN: aminopeptidase N
 Feline FIPVa Feline APN: aminopeptidase N
 Human 229e Human APN: human aminopeptidase N
 Human NL63 ACE2: Human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2
Group 2
 Human SARS ACE2: Human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2
 Murine Mouse hepatitis CEACAM1: Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1b
 Bovine Bovine coronavirus Sialic acid residues on glycoproteins and glycolipids
a

Virus abbreviation: TGEV, transmissible gastroenteritis virus (of swine); FIPV, feline infectious peritonitis virus.

b

Note that entry of mouse hepatitis variants of extended host range is independent of CEACAM1, and instead uses heparan sulfate as an entry receptor.
