Abstract excerpt
Infection and replication of SARS CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) requires entry to the interior of host cells. In humans, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) between the SARS CoV-2 receptor-binding domain (RBD) and the extracellular peptidase domain of ACE2 on the surface of cells in the lower respiratory tract is an initial step in the entry pathway. Inhibition of the SARS CoV-2 RBD/ACE2 PPI is currently...
