The effect of cysteine oxidation on conformational changes of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein using atomistic simulations

The SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S) protein plays a central role in viral entry into host cells, making it a key target for therapeutic interventions. Oxidative stress, often triggered during viral infections, can cause oxidation of cysteine in this protein. Here we investigate the impact of cysteine oxidation...
