Spike residue 403 affects binding of coronavirus spikes to human ACE2

The bat sarbecovirus RaTG13 is a close relative of SARS-CoV-2, but its spike protein doesn’t efficiently bind human ACE2. Here, the authors show that exchange of spike residue 403 between RaTG13 and SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins affects binding to human ACE2 and entry of pseudotyped viruses.
