摘要:
The present disclosure relates generally to a structure-modeling approach to identify therapeutic and diagnostic targets on proteins. Means are provided to generate agents which bind and optionally antagonize a particular domain within a protein referred to as a Family Domain. In an embodiment, the disclosure is directed to the control of infection or infection by related microorganisms by targeting selected domains on protease-like molecules having a hemagglutinin region. In another embodiment, the present invention enables the modulation or detection of a protein having a domain homologous to those in the protease-like molecules.
