Bullous pemphigoid (BP) has been repeatedly reported to occur following exposure to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This study analyzes the molecular mimicry between the 180 kDa bullous pemphigoid antigen 2 (BP180) and the SARS-CoV-2 proteome to further our understanding of the molecular link between the BP and the SARS-CoV-2 infection. Results indicate a high degree of molecular mimicry between BP180, SARS-CoV-2, hCoV-229E and hCoV-NL63.

Abstract

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) has been repeatedly reported to occur following exposure to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). This study analyzes the molecular mimicry between the 180 kDa bullous pemphigoid antigen 2 (BP180) and the SARS-CoV-2 proteome to further our understanding of the molecular link between the BP and the SARS-CoV-2 infection. Results indicate a high degree of molecular mimicry between BP180, SARS-CoV-2, hCoV-229E and hCoV-NL63.
