SARS CoV-2 Mimicry Database

In this section, domain and motif mimicry has been reported in the SARS CoV-2- human interactome. For this, The SARS CoV-2 proteins and host proteins with common interacting host proteins are compared for similar domains indicating global structural similarity and motifs indicating local sequence similarity to determine Domain Mimicry Pairs (DMPs) and Motif Mimicry Pair (MMPs) respectively.Apart from experimental HPIs, the high confidence predicted HPIs are also considered for this study as the experimental data may be erroneous, incomplete or both. Also, the human- SARS CoV-2 interactome is far from complete.A total of 593 DMPs and 7,02,472 MMPs were determined in the SARS CoV-2- human interactome
