It's a single strand RNA virus. I think it was sequenced around January 2020 plus or minus a month. Many structural models exist using numerical computing.

It seems like these antibodies react specifically to a the spike protein where it binds to the angiotensin receptor.

The SARS2 was also sampled in sewer samples in southern France somewhat earlier that year. (I think it was Marseille---which is not far from Italy).

Where's that post about the 79 top universities in the world having no report whatsoever about the isolation or sequencing of this alleged virus?

I never heard about this. But pretty much anyone can get this new SARS if they really want it.
