A glycan gate controls opening of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein

SARS-CoV-2 infection is controlled by the opening of the spike protein receptor binding domain (RBD), which transitions from a glycan-shielded “down” to an exposed “up” state in order to bind the human ACE2 receptor and infect cells. While snapshots of the “up” and “down” states have been obtained b...
