When the Ebola virus infects a host cell, the first thing it does is attach itself to the cell using a glycoprotein. A newly obtained structure of that glycoprotein—the highest resolution one to ...
Duke Human Vaccine Institute (DHVI) investigators used a technique called time-resolved, temperature-jump (TR, T-Jump) small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) to capture the spectacularly brief moment ...
Since the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic spread around the world, researchers across the globe have been analyzing severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2), as well as similar ...
Spike glycoprotein structure of SARS-CoV, the coronavirus causing the 2002 outbreak. When linoleic acid is bound, the structure is locked in a non-infectious form. The cryo-EM density, calculated by ...
Scientists plan to use their new map of the Lassa virus surface glycoprotein to design a much-needed vaccine. A new study from scientists at La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) gives researchers a ...
Data shows how antibodies bind to V1/V2 domain. Scientists report on the structure of the HIV-1 gp120 glycoprotein’s V1/V2 domain and how a broadly neutralizing antibody binds to the structure and ...
video: This spinning blue shape is the outer shell (glycoprotein) that shields lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) from immune system attack. And yet new research shows that an antibody (grey) ...
