Fusion inhibitor predicted ΔGbind as a function of pH. (A) Superimposed are two recently determined structures of the Spike protein that experimentally characterize pH-mediated conformational changes in structure.55 At Site 1, numerous residues (K776 and K947) that participate directly in binding ARB and derivatives are involved in pH-mediated conformational change. (B) Predicted ΔGbind as a function of pH at Site 1 for 12a, 12f, and 4. To illustrate the trend of ΔGbind as a function of pH, sigmoidal functions were calculated with the five-parameter logistic equation to best fit the data.
