    Snippet: As the interactions between the ACE2 receptor and S-protein RBD interface are critical for the cellular entry of the virus, we wondered if there were natural ACE2 variations that decrease or increase its affinity to the S-protein RBD that may protect or render individuals more susceptible to the virus. Consistent with this possibility, a saturation mutagenesis screen of select ACE2 PD residues identified variants that showed enhanced or decreased.....

Consistent with this possibility, a saturation mutagenesis screen of select ACE2 PD residues identified variants that showed enhanced or decreased binding to S-protein (Procko, 2020) .
