Protein detail:


Protein name Spike glycoprotein
Uniprot protein ID P0DTC2
Protein length 1273 amino acids
Protein description Spike protein is one of the structural proteins of SARS-CoV-2. The monomeric protein consists of one large ectodomain, a single-pass transmembrane anchor, and a short intracellular tail at C-terminus. It encompasses 22 glycosylation sites. S protein cleaves into two subunits namely S1 and S2 following receptor recognition. Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) in S1 subunit plays a major role in ACE2 receptor binding.

Title A SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody selected from COVID-19 patients binds to the ACE2-RBD interface and is tolerant to most known RBD mutations
Author Federico Bertoglio, Viola Fühner, Maximilian Ruschig, Philip Alexander Heine, Leila Abassi
Evidence The antibody STE90-C11 showed reduced binding to N501Y and lost binding to K417N/K417T, but it was able to bind to all of the other investigated RBD mutations, including a S1-7PM mutant and more relevant to E484K, N439K, and L452R, which are the RBD mutations in the emerging B.1.525, B.1.526, B.1.1.33, B.1.258, and B.1.429/B.1.427 variants.
