The Effect of <i>N</i>-Glycosylation of SARS COV-2 Spike Protein on the Virus Interaction With the Host Cell ACE2 Receptor
2021-06-01
Abstract excerpt
The densely glycosylated spike (S) protein highly exposed on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) surface mediates host cell entry by binding to the receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). However, the role of glycosylation has not been fully understood. In the present study, we investigated the effect of different <i>N</i>-glycosylation of S1 protein on its binding to ACE2. Using...
