COMPUTATIONALLY-OPTIMIZED ACE2 PEPTIDES FOR COMPETITIVE INTERCEPTION OF SARS-CoV-2

Methods and compositions relating to an engineered peptide capable of binding to a biological molecule for viral inhibition. The engineered peptide is computationally-derived from soluble angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (sACE2), a known receptor for viral spike proteins. The engineered peptide is op...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Methods and compositions relating to an engineered peptide capable of binding to a biological molecule for viral inhibition. The engineered peptide is computationally-derived from soluble angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (sACE2), a known receptor for viral spike proteins. The engineered peptide is optimized for minimal size and off-target effects. The engineered sACE2 peptide variants are a suitable targeting domain for fusion proteins of various effects.
