A team of scientists from the United Kingdom recently conducted a large-scale screening of several membrane-bound and soluble host cell receptors to identify novel binding partners for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). They have identified three novel receptors expressed on the human cell membrane; of which, one binds to SARS-CoV-2 spike with similar affinity as angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). The study is currently available on the bioRxiv* preprint server.
