Abstract

An interdisciplinary project that combines methods in artificial intelligence with protein biochemistry. Aims to (1) reconstitute, in vitro, the replication complex of COVID-19; (2) model it in silico; and finally (3) test nucleotide analogue type inhibitors (active on other viruses) and protein type inhibitors (nanobodies) that will target protein/protein interactions. This project will lay the groundwork for a future programme that will then integrate the structural aspects of this multi-enzyme complex of COVID-19.
