Researchers discover mechanism behind severe cases of G6PD deficiency
Researchers have revealed how the most severe cases of G6PD deficiency occur, which could help scientists design new drugs for the disease.
news
New probes shine a light on the role of four-stranded DNA in human cells
A better understanding of the role of four-stranded DNA (G-quadruplex) could enhance cancer therapeutics, said the developers of the probes.
news
Revealed structure of diarrhoea virus could aid in vaccine development
Using cryo-electron microscopy, researchers have observed the structure of a diarrhoea enteric adenovirus to see how it can survive the stomach.
news
Atomic force microscopy reveals structure of ribosome stalk proteins
Researchers have used force atomic microscopy to show the structural dynamics at ribosome stalk proteins when building new proteins.

Whitepaper: Virus vaccine research – accelerated workflows
Discover how workflows are being accelerated to speed up the vaccine research and development process while maintaining safety and immunogenicity.
news
Blood vessel damage likely causes neurological symptoms of COVID-19, finds study
A new study suggests that inflammation and blood vessel damage may be the primary causes of neurological symptoms in COVID-19 patients, instead of the virus infecting the brain.
news
Computational mass spectrometry method accelerates speed of data acquisition
A new subspace mass spectrometry imaging method has enabled researchers to provide data sets exponentially faster.
news
Microscopy reveals four classes of SARS-CoV-2 neutralising antibodies
Researchers show that neutralising antibodies targeting the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein have four distinct structures.

A label-free imaging technique for drug evaluation at single‑cell level
This article provides a brief overview of the technical and conceptual advantages of Raman spectroscopy, a label-free imaging technique that is being increasingly used for the purpose of drug evaluation.
news
Researchers discover how SARS-CoV-2 reaches the brain
A new study has identified the mechanisms through which the SARS-CoV-2 virus enters the brain and how the immune system responds once it does.
news
Novel imaging technique captures multiple tissues in 3D
A new imaging method called FLASH can provide a visualisation of several tissue types in a 3D format, its developers say.
article
Drug Target Review – Issue 4 2020
In this journal, find articles discussing antimicrobial resistance, exploring why inhibiting the interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and neuropilin-1 could help combat COVID-19, as well as how CRISPR can be used to enhance productivity in cell line development. Also in this issue, features on engineering new biologic drugs and precision medicine.
news
3D view of SARS-CoV-2 replication cycle could enable antiviral drug development
Scientists have shown how SARS-CoV-2 induces changes in the architecture of host cells to drive replication and made their data available to all.
