Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of the SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor-binding domain bound to the ACE2 receptor.

TL;DR: High-resolution crystal structures of the receptor-binding domain of the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 and SARS -CoV in complex with ACE2 provide insights into the binding mode of these coronaviruses and highlight essential ACE2-interacting residues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human neutralizing antibodies elicited by SARS-CoV-2 infection.

TL;DR: In a study of antibodies isolated from patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, antibodies that potently neutralized the virus competed with angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 for binding to the receptor-binding domain of the viral spike protein, suggesting that antibodies that disrupt this interaction could be developed to treat Sars-Cov-2 infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Impact of Mutations in SARS-CoV-2 Spike on Viral Infectivity and Antigenicity.

TL;DR: Most variants with amino acid change at receptor binding domain were less infectious but variants including A475V, L452R, V483A and F490L became resistant to some neutralizing antibodies, while deletion of both N331 and N343 glycosylation drastically reduced infectivity, revealing the importance of gly cosylation for viral infectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Virologic and Immunologic Characterization of Long-Term Survivors of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Infection

TL;DR: Subjects who remain asymptomatic for many years despite HIV-1 infection have low levels of HIV- 1 and a combination of strong virus-specific immune responses with some degree of attenuation of the virus.
