Abstract excerpt
The attachment of SARA-CoV-2 happens between ACE2 and the receptor binding domain (RBD) on the spike protein. Mutations in this domain can affect the binding affinity of the spike protein for ACE2. S477N, one of the most common mutations reported in the recent variants, is located in the RBD. Today's computational approaches in biology, especially during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, assist researchers in predicting a...
