Illustration showing two different infection scenarios, one without the participation of antibodies (left) and one with them (right). Without antibodies the spike protein of a virus binds to the ACE2 receptor on the cell, making it impossible for the virus to fuse with the cell membrane and enter the cell. Antibodies are produced by the immune system. | |
