LMB in vitro testing highlights bicyclic peptides (Bicycle®) as potential antiviral compounds against SARS-CoV-2
Bicycle Therapeutics reports on its updated preclinical data produced in collaboration with Leo James’ group in the LMB’s PNAC Division. In vitro tests of their proprietary bicyclic peptide show promise for antiviral modality against SARS-CoV-2. More…
LMB research featured in summary of three cryo-EM studies of TMEM106b fibrils found in neurodegenerative diseases
Alzforum summarises three recent papers which analysed TMEM106b amyloid filaments in the human brain – including research from Sjors Scheres’ and Michel Goedert’s groups in the LMB’s Structural Studies and Neurobiology Divisions respectively. More…
Structural analysis of GABAA receptors reveals unexpected diversity of arrangements
The Cambridge Independent reports on a recent paper from Radu Aricescu’s group in the LMB’s Neurobiology Division. His group’s structural investigation into type A gamma-aminobutyric acid receptors has found that their subunit arrangements are far more varied than previously thought. More…
