[ad_1] Researchers in Korea and the United States have identified new genetic variants that demonstrate active mutational progression of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the agent that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Two of the mutations occurred in the receptor binding domain of the viral spike protein, the …

[ad_1] A research team in India recently described how the field of proteomics could be pivotal in helping tackle the current 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Since the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on 11 Marchth, 2020, scientists have struggled to develop therapies for …

[ad_1] After landing in Lucknow on Tuesday morning to turn to Milap Zaveri Satyameva Jayate 2, John Abraham seems to have his “beast mode” as he prepares for the role of a police officer or so the latest photos on the Internet suggest. Giving fans a taste of his protein …

[ad_1] The 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic calls for better and faster tests to ensure more accurate diagnosis, monitoring and surveillance of the disease and its spread. Serological testing is used to identify severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection after the acute phase. A new study published on …

[ad_1] 12:50 PM Thursday 12 November 2020 I wrote – Shaima Morsi If there is one habit that nutritionists want you to practice, it is to have a healthy and balanced breakfast. And starting the day with a healthy meal can set you up for better options for the rest …

[ad_1] Reviewed by Emily Henderson, B.Sc.November 11, 2020 In many neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, protein aggregates form in the brain and are assumed to contribute to neuronal cell death. Yet there is a cellular defense mechanism that counteracts these aggregates, known as amyloid fibrils, and can even dissolve the …

[ad_1] The researchers found that nafamostat mesylate, when injected into the nasal cavity of Syrian hamsters, can reduce the initial viral load of SARS-CoV-2 in the nose. However, this effect was temporary and further tests are needed to determine clinically significant effects. The hunt group results are available on the …

[ad_1] Reviewed by Emily Henderson, B.Sc.November 11, 2020 “I have been working in this field for over 10 years and have not seen anything like it.” New research from the University of Michigan shows that a new synthetic protein nanoparticle that can slip past the nearly impermeable blood-brain barrier in …

[ad_1] Reviewed by Emily Henderson, B.Sc.November 10, 2020 The causes of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), including genetic and environmental factors, are not fully understood. Many studies have already shown that severe maternal infection during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk to offspring in both humans and animals. New research, …

[ad_1] Using a number of different monoclonal antibodies, the researchers determined several mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein that leads to resistance. Understanding these resistant mutations is important for the development of effective therapeutic strategies. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, infects host cells …
