T84 | 0-339 | Sentence | denotes | Given that the receptor-binding domain is the main target of neutralising antibodies8, it is surprising that the DPP4 receptor-binding site of MERS S was not occluded by glycans (Fig. 3a), as observed for other receptor-binding sites of class I viral fusion proteins, including SARS S (Fig. 3b), HIV-1 Env49, LASV GPC24 and influenza HA50. |
T85 | 340-644 | Sentence | denotes | We suggest that this is likely due to the intrinsic functionality of the receptor-binding domain of MERS S, that would be sterically hindered by the presence of N-linked glycans, whereas other viruses are able to accommodate the post-translational modifications, without greatly perturbing functionality. |
