HOUSTON, Texas, Nov. 13 (TNSJou) -- Rice University issued the following news release:
"Position 4" didn't seem important until researchers took a long look at a particular peptide.
That part of the peptide drawn from a SARS-CoV virus turned out to have an unexpected but significant influence on how it stably binds with a receptor central to the immune system's ability to attack diseased cells.
