Extended Data Fig. 3 | Structural comparisons of the RBDs of SARS-CoV-2
and SARS-CoV and their binding modes to the ACE2 receptor. a, Alignment
of the SARS-CoV-2 RBD (core in cyan and RBM in red) and SARS-CoV RBD (core
in orange and RBM in blue) structures. b, Structural alignment of the
SARS-CoV-2 RBD–ACE2 and SARS-CoV RBD–ACE2 complexes. The SARS-CoV-2
RBD is shown in cyan and red, its interacting ACE2 is shown in green. The
SARS-CoV RBD is shown in orange and blue, its interacting ACE2 is shown in
salmon. The PDB code for the SARS-CoV RBD–ACE2 complex is 2AJF.
