Scientists have identified a new epitope at the furin cleavage site of the SARS-CoV-2 spike
Scientists have identified an immunogenic epitope at the furin cleavage site of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that induces a robust antibody response in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In his study published in the journal eBiomedicine, researchers also identified a monoclonal antibody that binds to this epitope and protects mice from …
