Heparin inhibits cellular invasion by SARS-CoV-2: structural dependence of the interaction of the surface protein (spike) S1 receptor binding domain with heparin.

C. Mycroft-West, D. Su, I. Pagani, T. Rudd, S. Elli, S. Guimond, G. Miller, M. Meneghetti, H. Nader, Y. Li, Q. Nunes, P. Procter, N. Mancini, M. Clementi, A. Bisio, , M. A. Skidmore

This study shows heparin inhibits SARS-CoV-2 invasion by binding to the Spike protein's RBD and inducing conformational changes, with structural features of heparin playing a key role.
