Our studies conclude that the increased affinity of the Q498Y RBD protein is due to a higher number and types of inter-molecular interactions provided by the RBD tyrosine 498 side chain, compared to those associated to glutamine 498 in the wild-type RBD. Comparison of the interatomic contacts between RBD and ACE2 in the wild type and Q498Y structures: | Our studies conclude that the increased affinity of the Q498Y RBD protein is due to a higher number and types of inter-molecular interactions provided by the RBD tyrosine 498 side chain, compared to those associated to glutamine 498 in the wild-type RBD.
