Effect of mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein on protein stability, cleavage, and cell-cell fusion function
The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (S) is the sole viral protein responsible for both viral binding to a host cell and the membrane fusion event needed for cell entry. In addition to facilitating fusion needed for viral entry, S can also drive cell-cell fusion, a pathogenic effect observed in the lungs of...
