In breakthrough research, scientists have identified synthetic mini-antibodies to combat Covid-19. The ability of SARS-CoV-2 to infect cells depends on interactions between the viral spike protein and the human cell surface protein ACE2. To enable the virus to hook onto the cell surface, the spike protein binds ACE2 using three finger-like protrusions, called the receptor-binding […]
The blood types that make you more prone to catching COVID-19 REVEALED
One study claims people with Type A blood may be at a higher risk of catching coronavirus and of showing severe symptoms while people with Type O blood may be less vulnerable.Previous papers show that specific blood types may influence the person’s risk of contracting other diseases, including cancer. Laure Segurel, a human evolutionary geneticist and […]
