Complete genome analysis of a SARS-like bat coronavirus identified in the Republic of Korea

In conclusion, we firstly carried out whole genome characterization of the SARS-like bat coronavirus discovered in the Republic of Korea; however, it presumably has no human infectivity. However, continuous surveillance and genomic characterization of coronaviru ses from bats are necessary due to potential risks of human infection induced by genetic mutation.
