Probable origin and cross-species transmission of SARS-CoV-2

Abstract
At the end of last year, were reported cases of patients with atypical pneumonia in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. Most of the initial patients worked, lived or were consumers of products from the wholesale seafood market, which suggested a possible transmission of a pathogen of animal origin to humans. Later, it was determined that the culprit was a coronavirus, named SARS-CoV-2, whose rapid spread caused the pandemic of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). The disease is currently a cause for concern and intense research worldwide. Theories on the origin of the coronavirus have been postulated, being the most widely accepted that the virus comes from the Malay pangolin. With the intention of reinforce this theory, in this research, from nucleotide sequences in the public domain, were selected Fragments of nucleotide sequences encoding the coronavirus surface spike glycoprotein from some host organisms infected by different coronavirus strains including SARS-CoV-2. From phylogeny and acid amino acid sequence analysis were found possible cross-species transmission of the virus responsible of the disease including humans.
