VIRUS-LIKE PARTICLES FOR PREVENTING THE SPREADING AND LOWERING THE INFECTION RATE OF VIRUSES
20220273581 · 2022-09-01 ·

According to some embodiments, a carrier for reducing a likelihood of a pathogen binding to cell structures of a host comprises a core, surface features extending from an exterior surface of the core, wherein the surface features are configured to bind to target areas of cell structures of the host to at least partially block the pathogen from binding to said target areas as a result of competitive inhibition, and a plurality of binding sites along the exterior surface, wherein the binding sites are configured to attract at least one portion of the pathogen, wherein the binding sites are recognizable by the pathogen and are able to be bound by the pathogen, thereby at least partially immobilizing the pathogen and reducing the likelihood of the pathogen binding to target areas of cell structures of the host.

According to some embodiments, a method of reducing a likelihood of a pathogen binding to cell structures of a host comprises at least partially blocking the pathogen from binding to cell structures of the host as a result of competitive inhibition by delivering a carrier to the host, and at least partially reducing the likelihood of the pathogen binding to target areas of cell structures of the host.

Methods and systems for producing nanolipoprotein particles

Provided herein are methods and systems for the production of a nanolipoprotein particle (NLP) that includes a scaffold protein a membrane forming lipid and optionally a target protein. At least one of the scaffold protein and target protein can be provided through an IVT system. The membrane forming lipid, scaffold protein and optionally the target protein can be assembled for a time and under conditions that allow obtaining high yield NLPs, NPLs with an increased solubility, an NLP of a controlled size, and/or an NLP having a size predetermined to include a pre-selected target protein.
