The diagram shows the probable associations between various proteins (analysed using STRING software). The main nodes are formed by FGF23, CYP27B1, CYP24A1, PTH, FURIN, etc. The diagram indicates the importance of vitamin metabolism involving FGF23, CYP27B1, CYP24A1 and the regulation of Furin ultimately, which in turn is responsible for entry of coronavirus into the cell by interaction with TMPRSS2
