    Snippet: It has been demonstrated that the ACE2 from several mammalian species possess high sequence similarities, yet their binding to the SARS-RBD differs significantly. In particular, the binding of SARS-RBD to the rat ACE2 is much weaker as discovered in experiments 12 . Inspired by these information, two mutants of the CoV2-RBD/ACE2 were constructed: (1) ACE2-mut-h1 by mutating N-terminal helix-1 to that of the rat ACE2; (2) ACE2-K353H by mutating K3.....
