Neutralizing Antibody May Block Measles Virus Infection June 27, 2024 Researchers captured the structure of a new neutralizing antibody (blue) binding to the measles fusion glycoprotein (green).

While common sense may suggest that antibodies that do not neutralize the SARS-CoV-2 virus are of little value, recent studies show they can still confer protection against infection.

The molecular features of the neutralization process were further assessed using a panel of antibodies, 1-20 (a potent neutralizer), 910-30 (a moderate neutralizer), and B38 (a weak neutralizer).

A common bacterium-blocking strategy is to fill the attachment protein hand with an antibody. The attachment protein, however, isn’t static. It fluctuates between strong- and weak-gripping ...
