No more COVID-19 vaccinations! Multi-country joint study: two antibodies against all new coronavirus variants
Time of Update: 2022-10-03
The purpose of this study was to investigate the neutralization activity-specific breadth and structural basis of previously isolated mAbs. To identify previously isolated mAbs for RBD recognition of the new coronavirus, graduate students became RBD proteins that have been identified in Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Omicron and tested eight mAbs that initially showed strong binding to wild-type strains of RBD.

Neuron—A new molecular mechanism by which synaptic initiating proteins regulate ultrafast endocytosis
Time of Update: 2022-10-03
Written by - Wang Yalong Responsible Editor - Wang Sizhen Editor - Yang BinweiThe continuous neural activity of neurons requires the participation of a large number of synaptic vesicles, and the cell body cannot replenish the consumed vesicles in time, so a variety of vesicle circulation methods are formed within the synapses to ensure the rapid recovery of the membrane and protein components of the synaptic vesicles for reuse[1].
