vaccines also offer relatively short-lived immunity, requiring annual -or even more frequent- booster doses, making it harder to administer. Cornell researchers sought out to address these shortcomings with their new vaccine. Their modular technology can accommodate glycoprotein antigens from many

Celebrating 29k human followers of our 0 person island by sharing about local fish. Patagonia Toothfish, like other notothenioid fishes, are able to survive in freezing, ice-laden waters of the S. Ocean due to the presence of an antifreeze glycoprotein in blood. It doesn’t help against Weddell Seals

the same mRNA technology that powered the COVID-19 vaccines, but redirect it to fight a protein that promotes blood vessel growth in the retina. So, how does it work exactly? Researchers developed a vaccine that carries mRNA instructions for leucine-rich alpha-2-glycoprotein 1, or LRG1. The protein

Deep mutational scanning of rabies glycoprotein defines mutational constraint and antibody-escape mutations
Rabies virus causes nearly 60,000 human deaths annually. Antibodies that target the rabies glycoprotein (G) are being developed as post-exposure prophylactics, but mutations in G can render such antib...
