The Israeli BAG

DOI

The Israeli BAG encompass most MX groups in Israel and is highly diverse and versatile in its scientific interests and convictions. In the last year some groups which are not regarded as genuine MX have been joining our BAG as users of the bioSAXS BM29 station adding to the diversity of the BAG. It is not straightforward to set descriptive summary that covers all the topics. A central theme in several BAG members could be regarded is molecular virology such as, the molecular basis for cell entry of viruses, from the Arenaviridae family of viruses, design of Vaccines against HVC by targeting HCV E2 envelope (Env) glycoprotein for neutralizing antibodies (nanobodies). The group of Rouvunski focuses on studying arthropod borne viruses (dengue, West Nile, Zika, Israel Turkey Meningoencephalitis) and recently coronaviruses (SARS-CoV-2, MERS, OC43) and their envelope proteins. On another approach we attempt to discover therapeutics against Chikungunya Virus by targeting the Clk1.
