Purification and characterization of the receptor‐binding domain of SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein from Escherichia coli
7 May 2021
Abstract excerpt
Abstract SARS‐CoV‐2 is responsible for a disruptive worldwide viral pandemic, and renders a severe respiratory disease known as COVID‐19. Spike protein of SARS‐CoV‐2 mediates viral entry into host cells by binding ACE2 through the receptor‐binding domain (RBD). RBD is an important target for development of virus inhibitors, neutralizing antibodies, and vaccines. RBD expressed in mammalian cells suffers from low...
