How Do Point Mutations Enhancing the Basic Character of the RBDs of SARS-CoV-2 Variants Affect Their Transmissibility and Infectivity Capacities?

The spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants in the population depends on their ability to anchor the ACE2 receptor in the host cells. Differences in the electrostatic potentials of the spike protein RBD (electropositive/basic) and ACE2 receptor (electronegative/acidic) play a key role in both the rapprochemen...
