ACE2 Co-Evolutionary Pattern Suggests Targets for Pharmaceutical Intervention in the COVID-19 Pandemic

2020-04-21

Abstract excerpt

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spillover infection on December 2019 has caused an unprecedented pandemic. SARS-CoV-2, as other coronaviruses, binds its target cells through the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor. Accordingly, this makes ACE2 research essential for understanding the zoonotic nature of coronaviruses and identifying novel drugs. Here we present a systema...
