Mashup Score: 11New discovery uncovers the Achilles’ heel of the malaria parasite - Scripps Research Magazine - 4 hour(s) ago
A long-standing question in the field of severe malaria has remained for decades: Do people living in regions with continuous malaria transmission develop specialized antibodies against the parasite and its many strains? The answer is yes, as recently discovered through a collaborative effort among researchers from Scripps Research; the University of Copenhagen; the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio; the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, EMBL Barcelona; the University of California, San Francisco; the Tanga Research Centre in Tanzania; and the Infectious Disease Research Centre in Uganda.

Mashup Score: 10Researchers use biophysics to design new vaccines against RSV and related respiratory viruses - 4 day(s) ago
Scripps Research scientists improved existing vaccines by analyzing the molecular structure and stability of viral proteins. LA JOLLA, CA — In most people, the lung-infecting pathogens known as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV) trigger mild cold-like symptoms. But in infants and seniors, these viruses can cause severe pneumonia and even death. Vaccines against both viruses, however, have been difficult to design. Now, Scripps Research scientists have analyzed the structure

Unstable F proteins have hindered RSV and hMPV vaccines, but after analyzing their structure, the @lab_zhu uncovered instability caused by an “acidic patch” and re-engineered RSV F proteins to enhance stability and efficacy in pre-clinical models.

Mashup Score: 23Peering into the mitochondria to reveal cellular stress and disease: Danielle Grotjahn, PhD - Scripps Research - 11 day(s) ago
Peering into the mitochondria to reveal cellular stress and disease The mitochondria are well known for being cellular “powerhouses,” given their important role in energy generation. Yet, emerging research is now suggesting these organelles also play a key role as the stress-sensors for the cell. In this free Front Row lecture, Scripps Research assistant professor Danielle Grotjahn explored how mitochondria change shape in response to different genetic and environmental stressors. By harnessing cutting-edge
