Abstract

Dual-Locking the SARS-CoV-2 Spike Trime An amphipathic small molecule acts as a “bolt,” stabilizing SARS-CoV-2 Spike in its closed state via a novel dual-locking mechanism at conserved RBD-RBD/NTD-RBD interfaces, hinting at broad-spectrum anti-coronavirus potential. More details can be found in article number 2417534 by Ke Xu, Yang Du, Honglin Li, and co-workers.
