Understanding binding of animal rotavirus strains offers insight into zoonotic potential

The goal of this project is to determine if bat P[10] binds in an excited state to the human glycans that P[II] strains bind

CEST NMR data and 2D 1H-15N-HQSC spectra revealed that L80, T137, G116, and G103 residues may participate in slow confirmational changes of the VP8* receptor binding domain on the VP4 spike protein
