ACE2 bound to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein

The Antibody Engineers NSF ATE project has published its first research project from the January 2022 Hackathon in QUBES. The project guides students through the process of investigating whether different commercial antibodies are likely to work against SARS-CoV-2 variants.

In the main research component, students use NextStrain.org and GenBank to find protein sequences from new variants and align those sequences to a spike protein complexed with an antibody. Mutations in the antibody binding site are modeled to understand how an amino acid substitution may change the chemical bonds between an antibody and... Read more

NAR database growth since 1996

SARS-CoV-2 remains a relevant topic for bio database development. According the the NAR database compendium , and our research, at least 25 SARS-CoV-2 data resources are available to the public. Their Immunoprofiling: How it works specialized topics include immunology, genomics, RNA, proteins, drugs, and SARS-CoV-2 / COVID-19 literature. This post explores the CoV-AbDab database as a resource for studying how antibodies neutralize the virus to protect against serious disease. Read more
