Mini Protein Design for Targeted Function
We design compact proteins to recognize selected surfaces on biological targets. A useful binder must be produced, adopt the intended fold, and generate the required biological effect.
Our viral neutralization program begins with the structural and functional analysis of target antigens. We profile regions suitable for binder design and select epitopes and hotspots with attention to accessibility and the intended mode of neutralization.
Our research focuses on SARS-CoV-2, influenza, and RSV.
