DNA Aptamers Block the Receptor Binding Domain at the Spike Protein of SARS-CoV-2

2020-07-23

Abstract excerpt

DNA aptamers are versatile molecular species obtained by the folding of short single-stranded nucleotide sequences, with highly specific recognition capabilities against proteins. Here we test the ability of selected DNA aptamers in interacting with the spike (S-)protein of the SARS-CoV-2 viral capsid. The S-protein, a trimer made up of several subdomains, develops the crucial function of recognizing the ACE2 r...
