Sulphated polysaccharides from seaweeds as potential entry inhibitors and vaccine adjuvants against SARS-CoV-2 RBD spike protein: a computational approach
The health pandemic (covid-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has infected, to date, over 233 million people and over 4.77 million deaths worldwide. Therefore, it is important to offer a wide understanding of the ability of potential antiviral biomolecules...
