Abstract excerpt
The receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is the main target of neutralizing antibodies (Abs) and nanobodies (Nbs). Although their binding affinities are well characterized, their mechanical stability under force remains poorly understood, despite its relevance in viral attachment, immune recognition, and receptor engagement. Here, we present a comparative nanomechanical analysis of three...
