Uncovering cryptic pockets in the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein [PDF]
ABSTRACT The recent global COVID-19 pandemic has prompted a rapid response in terms of vaccine and drug development targeting the viral pathogen, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). In this work, we modelled a complete membrane-embedded SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein, the primary target of vaccine and ...

Cryo-EM structure of the SARS coronavirus spike glycoprotein in complex with its host cell receptor ACE2. [PDF]
The trimeric SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) surface spike (S) glycoprotein consisting of three S1-S2 heterodimers binds the cellular receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and mediates fusion of the viral and cellular membranes through a pre- to ...

COVID-19 is a disease caused by SARS CoV-2 by producing structural proteins and non-structural proteins. SARS CoV-2 uses a spike glycoprotein to bind ACE-2 receptors in host cells and uses main protease to replicate.

Computer Simulations of the interaction between SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein and different surfaces [PDF]
A prominent feature of coronaviruses is the presence of a large glycoprotein spike protruding from a lipidic membrane. This glycoprotein spike determines the interaction of coronaviruses with the environment and the host.

Therapeutic targeting of coronavirus spike glycoprotein priming [PDF]
Abstract Processing of certain viral proteins and bacterial toxins by host serine proteases is a frequent and critical step in virulence. The coronavirus spike glycoprotein contains three (S1, S2, and S2’) cleavage sites that are processed by human host proteases.
