Virology: Susceptible to infection by many viruses (arboviruses, reoviruses, rotaviruses, etc.).
Virology: Susceptible to infection by SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV). Produces a lytic infection (PubMed=15731278; PubMed=16494729).
Virology: Susceptible to infection by SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (COVID-19) (PubMed=33389257).
Derived from site: In situ; Fetal kidney; UBERON=UBERON_0002113.
Species of origin Chlorocebus pygerythrus (Vervet monkey) (Cercopithecus pygerythrus) (NCBI Taxonomy: 60710)
