Chemists are taking a p[h]age from bacteria's playbook in order to beat viruses at their own game and develop new drugs to fight cancer and a host of other human diseases in the process. Chemists at ...
Mapping the individual amino acids where antibodies bind (epitopes) to target viral proteins (antigens) is crucial to predicting how target proteins may evolve to escape antibody binding, improve ...
In the early and mid-1980s, scientists used phages to express recombinant proteins. The protein was retained inside the virions, so screening required growing viral plaques, creating a stamp of these ...
