Figure 3. Mechanism of transmission of viral infection.

Figure 3

SARS-CoV spreaders establish interaction with human spreader proteins, and the viral infection gets mediated from SARS-CoV PPIN to human PPIN through them. (A) PPIN of SARS-CoV (red) in which spreader nodes are marked as blue. (B) Interaction of SARS-CoV spreaders with its level-1 corresponding proteins in human PPIN (marked as green). (C) Selection of spreaders in level-1 (level-1 spreaders are marked as yellow) and level-2 human proteins (level-2 spreaders are marked as green). Rest proteins in human PPIN are ignored to prevent overlap in the diagram.
