1 Structure and Orientation of the SARS-Coronavirus-2 Spike Protein at Air-Water Interfaces. Water surface glycoprotein Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
2 We here report on the secondary structure and orientation of the S1 segment of the spike protein, which is often used as a model protein for in vitro studies of SARS-CoV-2, at the air-water interface using surface-sensitive vibrational sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy. Water surface glycoprotein Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
3 The SFG experiments show that the S1 segment of the spike protein remains folded at the air-water interface and predominantly binds in its monomeric state, while the combination of small-angle X-ray scattering and two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy measurements indicate that it forms hexamers with the same secondary structure in aqueous solution.
