Modeling Substrate Coordination to Zn-Bound Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2
2021-03-29
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The spike protein in the envelope of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) interacts with the receptor Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) on the host cell to facilitate the viral uptake. Angiotensin II (Ang II) peptide, which has a naturally high affinity for ACE2, may be useful in inhibiting this interaction. In this study, we computationally designed several Ang II m...
