T14 0-297 Sentence denotes Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV), Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV), and the recently identified novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) belong to the Coronaviridae family, genus Betacoronavirus, that has been related to important epidemiological outbreaks.
T15 298-382 Sentence denotes These are enveloped viruses with a positive-sense single-strand RNA of around 32 Kb.
T16 383-498 Sentence denotes The viral particles contain four main structural proteins: the spike, membrane, envelope protein, and nucleocapsid.
T17 499-641 Sentence denotes The spike protein protrudes from the envelope of the virion and plays a pivotal role in the receptor host selectivity and cellular attachment.
T18 642-812 Sentence denotes Strong scientific evidence showed that SARS and SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins interact with angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) (Chen et al 2020[2]; Wan et al., 2020[16]).
T19 813-950 Sentence denotes Also, other cellular receptors play a secondary role in the viral attachment, as the C-type lectin CD209L, and DC-SIGN binds to SARS-CoV.
T20 951-1246 Sentence denotes However, ACE2 appears to be the key functional receptor for the SARS-CoV (Coutard et al., 2020[3]; Satija and Lal, 2007[12]) and probably for SARS-CoV-2 (Walls et al., 2020[15]) The interaction between the viral protein and its cell membrane receptor is a critical step in the replication cycle.
T21 1247-1332 Sentence denotes Furthermore, the efficiency of viral infection is strongly dependent on this process.
T22 1333-1414 Sentence denotes Several physicochemical factors are associated with protein-protein interactions.
T23 1415-1546 Sentence denotes These factors are determined by the nature of residues and the type of chemical interactions occurring between ligand and receptor.
T24 1547-1712 Sentence denotes Thus, the presence of residues that produce an energetically favored interaction (lower free energy) may drive binding kinetics and finally lead to the fusion event.
T25 1713-1868 Sentence denotes Based on that, this study aimed to evaluate the energetic profile of the interaction between the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and the human cell receptor ACE2.
