3D structural findings are reported on a critical component of the Nipah virus' infection mechanism, and how antibodies home in on an important part of the machinery that attaches the virus to host ...

Glycoproteins are molecules that comprise protein and carbohydrate chains that are involved in many physiological functions including immunity. Many viruses have glycoproteins that help them enter ...

We conducted two double-blind, randomized trials of a herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) glycoprotein-D–subunit vaccine with alum and 3-O-deacylated-monophosphoryl lipid A in subjects whose regular ...

Many brain proteins participate in the early growth and development of the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). Here, I will focus on Reelin, a glycoprotein that helps guide brain development in an ...

A team of US-based scientists has recently demonstrated the cryo-electron microscopic structure and antigenicity of the attachment glycoprotein of the Nipah virus. The study is published in the ...

The glycans of the major capsid protein (Vp54) of Paramecium bursaria chlorella virus (PBCV-1) were recently described and found to be unusual. This prompted a reexamination of the previously reported ...

Astellas has become the latest big pharma company to sink some money into immuno-oncology start-up GO Therapeutics, forging an alliance to develop antibodies targeting two glycoprotein targets. The ...
