Static all-atom energetic mappings of the SARS-Cov-2 spike protein and dynamic stability analysis of "Up" versus "Down" protomer states.
The SARS-CoV-2 virion responsible for the current world-wide pandemic COVID-19 has a characteristic Spike protein (S) on its surface that embellishes both a prefusion state and fusion state. The prefusion Spike protein (S) is a large trimeric protein where each protomer may be in a so-called Up stat...
