And then there's a fourth stage, where different proteins come together to from a complex.
The BioNtech-Vaccine accounts for this afaik, to prevent the spike-proteins from clumping.
- SamBam 6y agoActually, my understanding [1] is that the spike proteins are expected to come together to form a full spike, and that this is what the antibodies match off of. So, even further from regex. The RNA gets turned into a sequence of amino acids, which folds in an extremely complex 3D shape, which bind together with two other proteins to form a large structure, the full shape of which is matched by antibodies. 1. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/health/pfizer-biontech-covid-19-vaccine.html https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/health/pfizer-biont...
