== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/SPIKE_MERS1 SPIKE_MERS1] Attaches the virion to the cell membrane by interacting with host receptor, initiating the infection (By similarity). Interacts with host DPP4 to mediate virla entry.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099]<ref>PMID:23486063</ref>   Mediates fusion of the virion and cellular membranes by acting as a class I viral fusion protein. Under the current model, the protein has at least three conformational states: pre-fusion native state, pre-hairpin intermediate state, and post-fusion hairpin state. During viral and target cell membrane fusion, the coiled coil regions (heptad repeats) assume a trimer-of-hairpins structure, positioning the fusion peptide in close proximity to the C-terminal region of the ectodomain. The formation of this structure appears to drive apposition and subsequent fusion of viral and target cell membranes.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099]  Acts as a viral fusion peptide which is unmasked following S2 cleavage occurring upon virus endocytosis.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099]
