How do coronaviruses recognize their hosts? How does our immune system fight against coronaviruses? As scientists around the world are working around the clock to develop effective vaccines and antiviral drugs to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, understanding the molecular structures of viral proteins holds the key to success. What kind of secret weapons do the research teams at the Institute of Biological Chemistry, Academia Sinica, hold to glean molecular insights into the nanostructures of coronavirus proteins and help develop effective therapeutics? This talk will bring you into the world of Structural Biology, to visualize the atomic structures of proteins, and to understand how we can understand the relationships between protein structures and biological function thereby helping drug developments.
