Can we leverage recent developments in machine-learning & protein design to tackle previously intractable challenges?
The answer is yes and we show it in this study led by the one and only @Dr_MattMcCallum

Check out our pre-print describing a CCHFV glycoprotein complex in the pre-fusion conformation! We used several engineering tricks to design our final construct, GP38-GnH-DS-Gc. Great collaborative effort, led by graduate student @Eliza4Science! biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…

Excited to share the pre-print describing our efforts to stabilize the HCMV gB ectodomain in a prefusion-like conformation. We and others have now routinely stabilized class I viral fusion proteins, but class III viral fusogens have been more difficult.

Delighted to have my 1st first-author paper @CellReports!
High-res site Ø and V complexes. Plus, now includes structural mapping of two non-canonical sites at the trimer interface, which are preF targets but elicit low neut mAbs. Thanks to all involved! cell.com/cell-reports/fullte…

Received an email from Rino Rappuoli this morning informing me, @BarneyGrahamMD and Peter Kwong of the positive phase III data for the RSV prefusion F vaccine results in older adults. It's been almost 10 years since we designed the first prefusion RSV F antigen, DS-Cav1. Amazing!

I'm happy to announce that ISOLDE 1.3 is now released! To use, get your hands on ChimeraX 1.3 (release candidate 2021/12/01 or later), and install it in the usual way via Tools/More Tools. New goodies include tools for using AlphaFold models, and improved ligand handling. (1/9)

We're hiring postdocs. Think deep homology meets proteomics. Discover ancient biochemical systems, invent new tech, or study the structure/function/evolution of proteins in embryonic development. Please RT!
Email CV, interests, & references' contact info to [email protected]
