    Scientists at Rochester Institute of Technology have discovered new information about the attachment of coronaviruses and several variants to human cells


    Researchers used code developed by Gregory Babbitt, associate professor at Thomas H.


    Patrick Rynkiewicz, who led this research '20 (Bioinformatics and Computational Biology),' 21 MS (Bioinformatics) said: "We use complex computer simulations in the field of molecular dynamics to compare-coronavirus proteins and host cells


    Researchers studied SARS-CoV-2 and alpha, beta, and gamma mutations, as well as several endemic coronavirus strains found in humans and bats


    Babbitt said: "This virus has two contact points with the human ACE2 receptor, one on the top and one on the bottom


    Functional binding dynamics relevant to the evolution of zoonotic spillovers in endemic and emergent Betacoronavirus strains
