Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain (RBD) undergoes frequent mutations, weakening current therapeutics. Despite its importance in viral entry, most inhibitors lack resilience to antigenic drift, emphasizing the need for broad-spectrum agents that maintain binding across variants while preserving host specificity. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The authors employed computational mutagenesis to design...
