Can the SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Bind Integrins Independent of the RGD Sequence?

The RGD motif in the Severe Acute Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein has been predicted to bind RGD-recognizing integrins. Recent studies have shown that the spike protein does, indeed, interact with α(V)β(3) and α(5)β(1) integrins, both of which bind to RGD-containing ligands. Howeve...
