Hold your horses: The receptor-binding domains of SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV, and hCoV-NL63 bind equine ACE2.

ABSTRACT: In this issue of Structure, Lan and colleagues seek to identify regions on the ACE2 receptor and coronavirus spikes that are essential for the viral attachment. They achieve it through a detailed comparative analysis of the binding of coronaviruses NL63, SARS-CoV, and several SARS-CoV-2 variants with human and horse ACE2.
