Researchers use exosome-based strategy to block HIV in mice

In a new study, researchers used exosomes to deliver novel protein into the cells of mice infected with HIV. The protein attached to HIVs’ genetic material and prevented itfrom replicating, resulting in reduced levels of HIV in the bone marrow, spleen, and brain. The study, funded by the US NIH’s National Institute of Mental Health […]

Machine learning assisted protein structure analysis reveals SARS-CoV-2 virus tactics

How does the SARS-CoV-2 virus manage to evade immune defence and replicate itself in patients suffering from COVID-19? To shed light on this question, an internationalresearch team has assembled the most comprehensive view to date on the precise, three-dimensional shape of each SARS-CoV-2 protein – including the well-known spike protein.

Using biomarkers, researchers create model to predict whether a patient will develop severe COVID-19 infection

An estimated 14−17% of hospitalized COVID-19 patients develop a severe form of the disease, requiring oxygen support and admission to the intensive care unit.Underlying medical conditions such as diabetes, chronic cardiac diseases, chronic kidney diseases, obesity, and some genetic predispositions contribute to the severity of COVID-19.

ENPICOM introduces IGX Platform for powerful liability prediction to de-risk antibody development

The bioinformatics software company ENPICOM showed the capabilities of its new IGX Platform, at the recent Biologics UK conference. The platform accurately annotates exposed liabilities, performs structural modelling of antibodies at scale, and determines developability profiles using customizable penalties. This major development allows researchers to improve their candidate selection by making accurate developability predictions for […]
