Fig. 2. Cryo-EM structure of the SARS-CoV-2 S protein in the prefusion conformation.

Fig. 2

(A) The structure of the S trimer was modeled based on a 2.9Å density map. Three protomers (A, B, and C) are colored in green, blue and red, respectively. (B) Overall structure of S protein in the prefusion conformation shown in ribbon representation. Various structural components in the color scheme shown in Fig. 1A include NTD, N-terminal domain; RBD, receptor-binding domain; CTD1, C-terminal domain 1; CTD2, C-terminal domain 2; FP, fusion peptide; FPPR, fusion peptide proximal region; HR1, heptad repeat 1; CH, central helix region; and CD, connector domain. N terminus, S1/S2 cleavage site and S2’ cleavage site are indicated.
