Uncanny similarity of unique inserts in the 2019-nCoV spike protein to HIV-1 gp120 and Gag (Indian research cited by Luc Montagnier)

Although, the 4 inserts represent discontiguous short stretches of amino acids in spike glycoprotein of 2019-nCoV, the fact that all three of them share amino acid identity or similarity with HIV-1 gp120 and HIV-1 Gag (among all annotated virus proteins) suggests that this is not a random fortuitous finding. In other words, one may sporadically expect a fortuitous match for a stretch of 6-12 contiguous amino acid residues in an unrelated protein. However, it is unlikely that all 4 inserts in the 2019-nCoV spike glycoprotein fortuitously match with 2 key structural proteins of an unrelated virus (HIV-1). The amino acid residues of inserts 1, 2 and 3 of 2019-nCoV spike glycoprotein that mapped to HIV-1 were a part of the V4, V5 and V1 domains respectively in gp120 [Table 1]. Since the 2019-nCoV inserts mapped to variable regions of HIV-1, they were not ubiquitous in HIV-1 gp120, but were limited to selected sequences of HIV-1 [ refer S.File1] primarily from Asia and Africa. The HIV-1 Gag protein enables interaction of virus with negatively charged host surface (Murakami, 2008) and a high positive charge on the Gag protein is a key feature for the host-virus interaction. On analyzing the pI values for each of the 4 inserts in 2019-nCoV and the corresponding stretches of amino acid residues from HIV-1 proteins we found that a) the pI values were very similar for each pair analyzed b) most of these pI values were 10±2 [Refer Table 1] . Of note, despite the gaps in inserts 3 and 4 the pI values were comparable. This uniformity in the pI values for all the 4 inserts merits further investigation. As none of these 4 inserts are present in any other coronavirus, the genomic region encoding these inserts represent ideal candidates for designing primers that can distinguish 2019-nCoV from other coronaviruses.

Good thread.

Thanks!!!

Based on Bayesian time scaled phylogenetic analysis using the tip dating method, we estimated the time to the most recent common ancestor and evolutionary rate of SARS 2 which ranged from 22 to 24 November 2019


Our results also revealed that the BetaCoV/bat/Yunnan/RaTG13/2013 virus was more similar to the SARS 2 virus than the coronavirus obtained from the two pangolin samples (SRR10168377 and SRR10168378). We also identified a unique peptide (PRRA) insertion in the human SARS 2 virus, which may be involved in the proteolytic cleavage of the spike protein by cellular proteases, and thus could impact host range and transmissibility.

Interestingly, the coronavirus carried by pangolins did not have the RRAR motif.

Therefore, we concluded that the human SARS 2 virus, which is responsible for the recent outbreak of COVID-19, did not come directly from pangolins.

Our results also suggest that the virus originated on 24 November 2019

This is an Indian non-peer reviewed study from January that was debunked and rejected by scientists. It was never published as a result.

Scientists slam Indian study that fueled coronavirus rumors

A preprint scientific manuscript published Jan. 31 by a group of Indian researchers suggested that the virus, known as COVID-19, may have been deliberately engineered using the HIV. The findings, which fed conspiracy theories that the new virus might be a bioweapon, have sparked a huge controversy. The authors withdrew the paper on Feb. 2 from the bioRxiv preprint server.

Multiple scientists, including Eric Feigl-Ding, a health economist at Harvard University's School of Public Health, and Shi Zhengli, a Chinese virologist at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and a member of a team that found the origin of the SARS virus in bats, have criticized the paper as lacking scientific merit and have called it misleading.

The Indian paper, titled, "Uncanny similarity of unique inserts in the 2019-nCoV spike protein to HIV-1 gp 120 and Gag," which claimed to find similarities between the new coronavirus and HIV, is based on improperly selected data, statistical analysis methods that violate basic norms and incorrect argumentation, Yang Ence, a scientist at Peking University's School of Basic Medical Sciences, wrote in a blog post recently. COVID-19 was previously known as 2019-nCoV.

The paper claimed to find four unique inserts in COVID-19, all of which are similar to amino acid residues in key structural proteins of HIV-1, which is "unlikely to be fortuitous in nature," suggesting that the virus might have been designed.

However, three of the inserts mentioned in the paper were found in a known coronavirus carried by bats, and the fourth was very similar to the bat coronavirus, Yang said. None of them is from the HIV, Yang said.

Yang added that the so-called inserts exist in the genetic sequences in many other animals and plants. The paper listed only seven to 12 amino acid residues of the inserts, while the HIV contains hundreds of amino acid residues. If such inserts can be compared with a fragment of the HIV, similarities can also be found in the genetic sequences of a variety of organisms, such as fruit flies, mold or even lentils, Yang wrote.

Yang warned against giving credence to research that reaches eye-catching conclusions based on bioinformatics analyses that do not follow methodological norms.

The paper's authors even withdrew it:

Quick retraction of a faulty coronavirus paper was a good moment for science

As fears of the novel coronavirus 2019-nCoV continued to spread last Friday, an inflammatory new paper appeared on bioRxiv, a preprint server, where scientists post work that hasn’t been vetted.

Titled “Uncanny similarity of unique inserts in the 2019-nCoV spike protein to HIV-1 gp120 and Gag,” the paper claimed to find similarities between the new coronavirus and HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. The use of the word “uncanny” in the title, together with “unlikely to be fortuitous” in the abstract, led some to think that the authors were suggesting the virus had somehow been engineered by humans.

The paper, from academic institutions in New Delhi, India, was critical and alarming, if true. Except that it wasn’t.

The paper was almost immediately withdrawn, but not before plenty of handwringing from researchers who complained that the appearance of such shoddy work on the bioRxiv preprint server without vetting by peer reviewers is precisely why the hoary old model of science publishing is better at keeping junk science out of the literature.

The reaction from the scientific community to the bioRxiv paper was swift. In a nutshell, commenters on bioRxiv and Twitter said, the author’s methods seemed rushed, and the findings were at most a coincidence. By Saturday morning, bioRxiv had placed a special warning on all papers about coronavirus. Later Saturday, the authors commented on their paper, saying they were withdrawing it.

And on Sunday, February 2nd, a more formal retraction appeared: “This paper has been withdrawn by its authors."

(November 16, 2015) Ralph S. Baric, an infectious-disease researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill,
last week (November 9) published a study on his team’s efforts to engineer a virus with the surface protein of the SHC014 coronavirus,
found in horseshoe bats in China, and the backbone of one that causes human-like severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in mice.
The hybrid virus could infect human airway cells and caused disease in mice, according to the team’s results, which were published in Nature Medicine.

Baric’s study on the SHC014-chimeric coronavirus began before the (2014) moratorium was announced,
and the NIH allowed it to proceed during a review process, which eventually led to the conclusion
that the work did not fall under the new restrictions, Baric told Nature.

“I don’t think it’s wise or appropriate for us to create large risks that don’t already exist,” says David Relman,

because they are so close to being pandemic viruses. “I’m quite delighted that great scientists like Ralph Baric are working on SARS
and doing the work they are doing,” says Relman. “But there still are specific experiments that I think should cause everyone pause
and potentially cause concern if conducted.” For SARS and MERS, he says, “the one thing that I would feel most concerned about doing
is to give them that one missing trait, their means of transmitting easily between humans.”

Baric says that kind of experiment is not happening in his lab. He’s not trying to change the way SARS or MERS gets transmitted.
In fact, he doesn’t know of any lab trying to do that.
Still, his group has recently been tweaking the genes of the MERS virus. So is he making it more dangerous?
“If you’re a mouse, the answer is probably yes, or at least I was trying to,” says Baric.

(December 19, 2019) Quantum Dots Deliver Vaccines and Invisibly Encode Vaccination History in Skin
Researchers headed by a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a microneedle platform
using fluorescent microparticles called quantum dots (QD), which can deliver vaccines and at the same time invisibly encode vaccination
history directly in the skin. The quantum dots are composed of nanocrystals, which emit near-infrared (NIR) light that can be detected
by a specially equipped smartphone.

(April 7, 2020) The coronavirus is infecting and killing black Americans at an alarmingly high rate
In Milwaukee County, home to Wisconsin’s largest city, African Americans account for about 70 percent of the dead
but just 26 percent of the population. The disparity is similar in Louisiana, where 70 percent of the people
who have died were black, although African Americans make up just 32 percent of the state’s population.

(April 10, 2020) Coronavirus is disproportionately killing African Americans
Earlier this week, officials in Chicago, Illinois were among the first to release a racial breakdown
of the city's 6,100 cases. More than half were African American, despite only the group only accounting
for 30 percent of the city's 2.7 million residents. Seven in 10 patients who died from COVID-19
in the city were African American, officials said.

They were bullied into withdrawing it, that's the part no media will show.

Bullshit. The paper was widely panned by scientists from all over the world. The Indian authors never even attempted to submit their manuscript for peer review in a publication, and this was three months ago.

“ For over three years, we have tracked Ft Detrick and the DTRA trucking company (All Farsi speaking) Transport Logistics. We have followed Battelle in Columbus, OH with connections to Lisa Page and Peter Strzok as well.”

Scientists associated with Wuhan, from 2009 to 2019, were working on trying to produce vaccines but, at least according to one of their published papers, were having issues with SARS not being contagious enough for them to be able to infect their mice (and petri dishes) for research purposes.

They added an HIV insert.

To a SARS-CoV-2 virus.

For research purposes.

To hopefully help them in the creation of a SARS vaccine.

It created a highly contagious SARS virus for lab use. It was also one that the mice could not fight off, even with the assistance of the vaccine-creating scientists. Even when they could fight off the SARS without the HIV insert.


The following published, peer reviewed, and scientific journal articles from prior years discuss or mention this unique viral tool or similar work by Wuhan scientists.

"Preparation of pseudoviruses. The construction of a codon-optimized full-length S gene of SARS-CoV BJ01, bat SL-CoV Rp3, and chimeric S gene (designated CS310–518), which has the Rp3-S gene containing aa 310–518 of BJ01 S in replacement of its corresponding region, has been described previously [3]. Briefly, 12 μg each of pHIV-Luc (pNL.4.3.Luc.E−R−) and plasmid pcDNA3.1 containing various S genes (or empty vector control) were co-transfected into 2 × 106 293T cells in 10 cm dishes by standard calcium phosphate method [6]. The pseudoviruses were purified by ultracentrifugation from cell culture supernatant through a 20% sucrose cushion (10 mL) at 55,000g for 60 min using a Ty70 rotor (Beckman). The pelleted pseudoviruses were dissolved in 100 μL of PBS and stored at −80 °C in aliquots until further use."

"Neutralization assays. A pseudovirus-based neutralization assay was used to determine the neutralization ability of immunized sera to pseudovirus HIV/BJ01-S, and HIV/CS318–510. The neutralizing activity of heat-inactivated sera (56 °C, 30 min) was determined by mixing 10 ng of pseudovirus (in 30 μL) with diluted antisera (in 30 μL) at 37 °C for 1 h. Sera–pseudovirus complexes were then mixed with 16 ng polybrene (in 40 μL medium) before they were added to human ACE2 expressing HeLa cells. The infected cells were washed with PBS and lysed (Cell Culture Lysis Reagent; Promega) at 48 h post infection. The neutralization activity of each antiserum was monitored by measurement of luciferase activity."
