Fig. 4From: Understanding the pivotal roles of ACE2 in SARS-CoV-2 infection: from structure/function to therapeutic implicationhrsACE2 inhibits SARS COV-2 replication. A SARS-CoV-2 by spike protein directly binds to the ACE2 receptor and then inter to the host cell by endocytosis. B The covering of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein by hrsACE2 lead to the prevention of the interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2 and subsequently prevents SARS COV-2 replication in the host cellBack to article page
