Protein-based Nanoparticles Designed to Neutralise the SARS-CoV2 Virus

UAB researchers have developed spherical, biocompatible and stable nanostructures that bind to the spike protein with high affinity and prevent cell infection. The modular and self-assembly strategy used by the researchers would allow them to be adapted to fight other viruses and to design molecules with a high antiviral capacity. The research has been published in the journal ACS Applied...
