Convergent use of aminopeptidase N receptor by hedgehog merbecoviruses.
Coronaviruses circulating in wildlife, such as European and Asian hedgehog merbecoviruses (EriCoVs), pose a potential transmission risk. Knowledge of viral receptors can inform risk assessment and development of countermeasures; however, the functional receptor for EriCoVs is unknown. Here we identify hedgehog aminopep...
