Computational optimization of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 for SARS-CoV-2 Spike molecular recognition
Since the beginning of the Covid19 pandemic, many efforts have been devoted to identifying approaches to neutralize SARS-CoV-2 replication within the host cell. A promising strategy to block the infection consists of using a mutant of the human receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as a de...
