Engineering and structures of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus glycoprotein complexes
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus is a widespread tickborne virus that infects humans. Engineering-based structural studies of the viral glycoprotein complexes GP38-Gn and GP38-Gn-Gc provide insights to their function in the viral life cycle. GP38-Gn-Gc confers partial protection against lethal viral challenge in mice, showing promise as a vaccine antigen for further development.

Another update on our #CCHF vaccine that is marching towards phase I clinical trial. Here we report on the durability of protection in a mouse model of CCHFV infection. Excellent work from our colleagues at RML/NIAID🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

More comments on Boltz-1

Mmseqs2-GPU integration is super fast. Helped a ton with an enzyme-substrate pair. It’s much better quality software engineering than most academic models and easy to use. Thanks @gcorso.bsky.social, you guys did great. I put some fun logos on OpenBioML you might find fun.

Question for the #CryoEM crowd: does anyone happen to recognize this lovely ~10-15nm diameter protein complex we stumbled across while imaging slime mold protein lysate (as one does)?

Thrilled to announce Boltz-1, the first open-source and commercially available model to achieve AlphaFold3-level accuracy on biomolecular structure prediction! An exciting collaboration with Jeremy, Saro, and an amazing team at MIT and Genesis Therapeutics. A thread!

New paper from Amit Khandhar’s team at HDT Bio demonstrating that our LION/repRNA platform can be thermostabilized by lyophilization, enabling refrigerator stability for at least 1 year!

Clear implications for global access to vaccines based on our technology.
