    Some of you asked how I modeled the RBD/ACE2 interface since there was no publication available at the time I made this video. Here's a follow up to show you how I did this in PyMOL: ua-cam.com/video/hcnnKrlqa9M/v-deo.html
    The paper is now published, so I show you a bonus interface interaction that involves one of the sugars near the end! It's SO neat!
    For more PyMOL tutorials, check out this playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLUMhYZpMLtal_Z7to3by2ATHP-cI4ma5X.html
    Thanks for your questions, comments, and the support!

    It seems like the first of the 3 RBD's is in a high energy state (flipped up) and wants to get to a low energy state through the first binding, i.e. an exothermic reaction. Then the remaining two RBD's are sent into a higher energy state. The endogenous proteolytic enzymes must sacrifice the higher energy state of one part of the peptide in order to create an upturned higher energy state at the other two RBD's. Then the other two upturned RBD's find a lower energy state by binding to the ACE receptor.

    • @Luemm3l
      @Luemm3l 4 роки тому +2

      these are models. computer generated/assisted models. proteins do not actually look like that, they dont have nice distinguishable colors etc.. the alpha helices and b-sheets are representations to better make sense of the virus in a 3D-environment, otherwise the only other way to "see" them would be electron microscopy but that doesnt give such a nice image. So in reality, these models combine data from a lot of different methods to kind of grasp how the protein works and looks like. you have to maybe begin with easier structures and basic molecular biology like how aminoacids, fats and sugars look like, how they are build and then work your way up. this is a lot of chemistry and physics at this point basically and without a basic background all of this might be hard to grasp. things like covalent bonding, valence electrons forces like Van der Waals and hydrogen bridge bonding, to comprehend how and why proteins form the way they form.

    A question. I'm not a doctor/biologist, but an engineer which worked on the design of medical diagnostic/lab machines; what if you place a molecule at top of the domain, a molecule with a strong and multisided charge, inactive in itself, but able to skew all the hydrogen bonds in the area? They are so weak, I used to cell them "water bridges"...

      @philosophicalinquirer312 4 роки тому +2

      The spike protein resembles SARS-1 2002/2003 coronavirus - although that has a weaker binding and although higher pathogenicity was less transmittable.
      Short answer to the first question is no, there is no method to trigger virus to dump its payload and dont quite see how that would work (you would need to replicate a cell membrane with ACE-2 receptors, quite a task)
      When the virus is isolated, the way to make it dump its payload is by destroying its surface membranes. Protease enzymes released and Lymphocytes would do this job ***IF*** they recognize the virus as a target.
      Other that that - the virus is easily destroyed by disrupting its outer membranes in vitro outside the body easily using disinfectants. Of course, this doesn't work in vivo, within the body because those disinfectants destroy our own proteins and lipids (sorry Trump, but no, disinfectants dont work in vivo - or lets say they do, at our own demise)

      @@philosophicalinquirer312 does the virus do most of its dirty work while on the surface of lung epithelial cells, and as such have no exposure to blood borne drugs? Once the virus is in blood, can we opsonize the viron, so wbc can kill it? Had followed Seattle genetics methods with interest.

    Is is possible that ACE inhibitors (used to treat high blood pressure) blocks the virus from entering the cell?

    • @MolecularMemory
      @MolecularMemory  4 роки тому +2

      Hello! Thanks for watching. How fast a virus can mutate depends on the virus. I'm not qualified to answer that one (I'm a structure gal myself) but there are researchers analyzing this, and you can view their findings here: nextstrain.org/narratives/ncov/sit-rep/2020-04-03 If the s protein gains mutations over time, it is possible for it to have some (usually small) structural changes over time.

    Excellent info, excellent animation. Could you answer some doubts?
    This video mainly focuses on the spike protein and its base that binds to a human cell, with the argument that introducing harmless amino acids resembling the spike protein can help human body develop the antibody against this virus. So, we can defeat this virus from knowledge of spike protein only? Why then are people looking for its genetic sequence?
    2. At molecular level, is it correct that a soap's composition eats away the corona virus' membrane?

    • @vishalmishra3046
      @vishalmishra3046 4 роки тому +1

      Yes Corona virus spike/capsid/membrane/envelop is made of fatty acids and most soaps/detergents are lipophilic and designed to attach and break-down oily/fatty molecules and surfaces. Lysol kills corona easily with disinfection.

      Because the virus has other proteins that inhibit anti viral and inflammatory signals from getting released within the cell.
