SARS-CoV-2 spike variants differ in their allosteric responses to linoleic acid

The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein contains a functionally important fatty acid (FA) binding site, which is also found in some other coronaviruses, e.g. SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV. The occupancy of the FA site by linoleic acid (LA) reduces infectivity by ‘locking’ the spike in a less infectious conformation. H...
