Investigating the role of binding free energy, binding affinity and antibody escape in the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein
2022-10-17
Abstract excerpt
SARS-CoV-2 is considered a pandemic virus and presents a major strain on public health globally. SARS-CoV-2 infects mammalian cells by binding to its receptor, ACE2 which is mediated by the viral spike glycoprotein, specifically the receptor binding domain (RBD) within the spike protein. Recent development of vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 spike protein are currently the best strategy to reduce morbidity and mortalit...
