2020-09-23
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19<sup>1</sup>, recognizes host cells by attaching its receptor-binding domain (RBD) to the host receptor ACE2<sup>2-7</sup>. Neutralizing antibodies that block RBD-ACE2 interaction have been a major focus for therapeutic development<sup>8-18</sup>. Llama-derived single-domain antibodies (nanobodies, ~15 kDa) offer advantages including ease of pr...
