Abstract

Protein reagents: Protein Production UK based at The Franklin are developing reagents in collaboration with other Franklin structural biologists which will stabilise selected SARS-COV-2 proteins for further analysis including imaging. The selected proteins are key targets for therapeutics and vaccines Collaborators: University of Oxford, Diamond Light Source, The Research Complex at Harwell (https://www.rfi.ac.uk/science-minister-hails-nanobody-breakthrough/)
