Abstract excerpt
The ongoing evolution of SARS-CoV-2 has given rise to variants with enhanced transmissibility and pathogenicity, many of which harbor mutations in the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the viral spike protein. These mutations often confer increased viral fitness and immune evasion by modulating interactions with the human ACE2 receptor (hACE2) and escaping neutralizing antibodies. Accurate prediction of the...
