Antiviral activity of an ACE2-Fc fusion protein against SARS-CoV-2 and its variants. by Ernesto Bermúdez-Abreut, Talia Fundora-Barrios, Diana Rosa Hernández Fernández, Enrique Noa Romero, Anitza Fraga-Quintero, Ana V Casadesús Pazos, Briandy Fernández-Marrero, Claudia A Plasencia Iglesias, Marilyn Clavel Pérez, Katya Sosa Aguiar, Belinda Sánchez-Ramírez, Tays Hernández

“…SARS-CoV-2 and its mutants use the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as a cellular entry receptor, which has triggered several therapeutic strategies against COVID-19 relying on the use of ACE2 recombinant proteins as decoy receptors. In this work, we propose an ACE2 silent Fc fusion protein (ACE2-hFcLALA) as a candidate therapy against COVID-19. …”
