Glycosaminoglycans induce conformational change in the SARS-CoV-2 Spike S1 Receptor Binding Domain (2020)
Journal Article
Mycroft-West, C. J., Su, D., Li, Y., Guimond, S. E., Rudd, T. R., Elli, S., …Skidmore, M. A. Glycosaminoglycans induce conformational change in the SARS-CoV-2 Spike S1 Receptor Binding Domain. bioRxiv, https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.04.29.068767

The glycosaminoglycan (GAG) class of polysaccharides are utilised by a plethora of microbial pathogens as receptors for adherence and invasion. The GAG heparin prevents infection by a range of viruses when added exogenously, including the S-associate...
