The Y498T499-SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S) protein interacts poorly with rat ACE2 and does not affect the rat lung.

Abstract excerpt
The rat is a useful laboratory model for respiratory disease, and SARS-CoV-2 proteins such as the spike (S) protein can induce inflammation. This study has investigated the ability of the Q498Y, P499T (QP-YT) amino acid change described in the S-protein of the mouse adapted laboratory SARS-CoV-2 MA strain, to interact with rat angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) and stimulate responses in rat lung. Using a real...
