Virus Entry: Receptor Binding & Membrane Fusion (2D)

2D virology lab: spike-receptor binding modelled with the Hill-Langmuir occupancy equation, Monte-Carlo trials converging on the analytic curve, and real exponential endosomal-acidification kinetics that trigger pH-gated membrane fusion.

This 2D companion drives the same spike-receptor entry mechanism as the 3D version through a plain canvas view built for reading the biophysics rather than orbiting a scene: every binding contact is resolved by the Hill-Langmuir occupancy equation from real receptor-binding pharmacology, a live dose-response plot shows the empirical Monte-Carlo success rate converge on that analytic curve as trials accumulate, and — for the endocytosis pathway — a genuine exponential acidification kinetic drives the endosomal pH down until it crosses the real hemagglutinin-class fusion trigger, all exposed through sliders instead of implied by an orbiting scene.

2D virology lab with Hill-Langmuir receptor-occupancy binding, a live dose-response plot comparing the analytic curve against accumulated Monte-Carlo trials, and real exponential endosomal-acidification kinetics driving pH-gated membrane fusion.
