medicine | among 226000 SARSCoV-2 sequences, 1573 missense mutations are found in the spike gene, and 226 of them were within the receptor-binding domain region that directly interacts with human ACE2. Modeling shows that most of the 74 missense mutations in the receptor-binding domain region of the interaction interface have little impact on spike binding to ACE2, whereas several within the spike receptor-binding domain increase the binding affinity toward human ACE2 thus making the virus likely more contagious | Homo sapiens |

physiological function | interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2. Most mouse ACE2 receptors (including rats and mice) show higher binding free energies than the human ACE2, indicating weaker binding to the SARS-CoV-2 spike. The mole ACE2 has a similar binding free energy to the human ACE2 due to their high sequence identity at the binding interface to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein | Mus musculus |
physiological function | interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2. The binding free energy of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein to the civet ACE2 is -5.11 kcal/mol, i.e. a lower binding affinity than human ACE2. Compared with the human ACE2 molecule, the civet ACE2 has a substitution from phenylalanine to serine at position 40 in the first helix at the N-terminal lobe region. This mutation breaks the pi-pi stacking interactions between the N-terminal helices, resulting in the side-chain rearrangement and loose helix-packing structures | Paguma larvata |
physiological function | interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2. The binding free energy of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein to the human ACE2 is -60.64 kcal/mol on average. ACE2 residues Tyr41 and Tyr83 contribute most to the spike binding affinity for both SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV. Residues Met82, Gly354, and Asp355 also have substantial contributions to the binding free energy between spike protein and ACE2 | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2. The binding free energy of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein to the pangolin ACE2 is -54.78 kcal/mol, i.e. a lower binding affinity than human ACE2. Compared with the human ACE2 molecule, the pangolin ACE2 has a substitution from Aso to Glu at position 38. This transformation has a significant impact on the hydrogen bond network in the left recognition region | Manis javanica |
