In this study in silico docking models were employed to investigate the molecular interactions between the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein, derived from the ...
New study shows how bacteria adapted a virus-derived injection system to recognize and attach to many different types of cells. By systematically identifying thousands of rapidly evolving ...

Viruses attack nearly every living organism on Earth. To do so, they rely on highly specialized proteins that recognize and bind to receptors on the surface of target cells, a molecular arms race that ...
Mentor(s): Michael Kennedy, Ph.D. Understanding binding of animal rotavirus strains offers insight into zoonotic potential The goal of this project is to determine if bat P[10] binds in an excited ...
As we approach the five-year anniversary of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is worth reflecting not only on the paradigm-shifting impact of the initial outbreak, but also on how SARS-CoV-2 continues to ...
Research led by the University of Washington reports on an AI-guided method that designs epitope-specific antibodies and confirms atomically precise binding using high-resolution molecular imaging, ...
A study from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital uncovered an alternative binding pocket within nuclear receptors, revealing a much-needed new therapy route for this important class of drug targets.
