Researchers from @UTAustin & @NIH are 1st to map the spike protein the #coronavirus uses to enter cells, a critical breakthrough toward developing a #vaccine — & they did it in record time!

ALT This is a 3D atomic scale map, or molecular structure, of the 2019-nCoV spike protein (aka the coronavirus), created at The University of Texas at Austin. The protein takes on two different shapes, called conformations—one before it infects a host cell, and another during infection. This structure represents the protein before it infects a cell, called the prefusion conformation.
