The molecular details of how SARS-CoV-2 enters cells and infects them are still not clear. Researchers at Uppsala University have tested the bioinformatic predictions made by another research group and have identified receptors that could be important players in the process. The results are presented in the journal Science Signaling and at the AAAS Annual Meeting held this week.
The spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 binds the protein ACE2 on the outside of the human cell. This triggers a series of events…
