We were interested in developing vaccination strategies against highly pathogenic human #coronaviruses with epidemic potential. Our previous studies, and those of others, defined the #RBD as a major target of neutralizing antibodies.

The following thread has the objective to describe (in a general way) the main features of RBD, for more details, feel free to check the sources that I will add at the end of the tweetorial.

🥇What is REM sleep?
Sleep is divided in 4 phases, each of them is repeated during the 🌕in a cycle.
N1: vertex waves
N2: sleep spindles, k complexes
N3: slow-wave-sleep (restorative phase)
REM: rapid horizontal eye movement occurs, we dream and there is no muscle tone

#Omicron features 50 mutations, with 15 mutations in the #RBD of the spike protein, which binds to the human #ACE2 for viral entry. However, it is not completely understood how these mutations alter the interaction and binding strength between the Omicron RBD and ACE2 1/
A new study by adopting a combined steered molecular dynamics (SMD) simulation and experimental microscale thermophoresis (MST) approach tried to quantify the interaction between Omicron RBD & ACE2. 2/
And what did they find?
Omicron brings an enhanced RBD-ACE2 interface through N501Y, Q493K/R, & T478K mutations; the changes further lead to unique interaction patterns, reminiscing the features of previously dominated variants, Alpha (N501Y) & Delta (L452R and T478K). 3/

02/ Jean-Marc Sabatier (@SabatierJeanMa1), Directeur de Recherche au CNRS depuis 32 ans, PhD/HDR en Biochimie et Microbiologie, nous explique tout cela dans une vidéo (crowdbunker.com/v/Mqr69rxT) dont je résume les 42 premières minutes dans ce #thread.
03/ Le virus #SARS-CoV-2 s’attaque au #SRA (le système rénine-angiotensine), un de nos systèmes de régulation les plus importants, responsable des fonctions autonomes rénales, pulmonaires, cardiovasculaires, de l’#immunité innée et du #microbiote intestinal.
‘#Spike protein’ is the major target of #NAbs in infected/vaccinated people. The prefusion conformation of the Spike represents the most relevant target because Abs can successfully interfere w/ infection only if they prevent binding to target cells or prevent fusion itself 1/
Various approaches are adopted to express ‘#Spike’ protein in vivo, such as nucleic acid structures & virus vectors. Alternatively, other vaccine platforms like recombinant protein particles & inactivated vaccines can directly deliver this protein 2/
Most structural studies of the wild-type spike protein exhibited one #RBD in the 'open' conformation. By contrast, 2 or 3 RBDs were observed in the open conformation in the more infective #D614G mutant--the RBD #conformation plays a vital role in the infectivity of SARSCoV2 3/

In this study, we have developed a fast and cost-effective method
for reverse genetics of coronaviruses by combining two approaches developed by others..As the genomes can be divided into multiple short fragments, mutations can be introduced into individual
fragments easily.
