Here, we provide a protocol for the design, expression, purification, and functional studies of an engineered trimeric version of the receptor-binding domain (tRBD) of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. We describe the use of tRBD to block SARS-CoV-2 spike pseudovirus and true virus binding to cellular angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ACE2), thereby blocking viral infection. This protocol is applicable to generate a trimeric version of any protein of interest. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Basavarajappa et al. (2022)..
在这里,我们提供了一种设计、表达、纯化和功能研究 SARS-CoV-2 刺突蛋白受体结合域(tRBD)工程化三聚体的方案。我们描述了使用 tRBD 阻断 SARS-CoV-2 刺突假病毒和真病毒与细胞血管紧张素转换酶-2(ACE2)的结合,从而阻断病毒感染。该方案适用于生成任何感兴趣的蛋白质的三聚体版本。有关此方案的使用和执行的完整详细信息,请参阅 Basavarajappa 等人。(2022 年)。
