?:abstract
  • Coronaviruses have a spike protein on their surface that binds tightly to a receptor protein on the surface of human cells Once the spike binds to the receptor, the virus can infect the cell and replicate Researchers have determined the structure of the 2019 coronavirus spike protein and how it binds to human receptors If a protein that binds to this spike protein could be designed, it could be used to block the interaction between the spike protein and human cells-and thereby stop the infection Here, Mascone assesses whether the designed proteins will fold correctly and whether they might be able to bind to the coronavirus target
