The novel approach to the protein design: active truncated forms of human 1-CYS peroxiredoxin.

abstract：:Ebola virus (EboV) is currently ravaging West Africa with estimated case fatality rate of 52%. Currently, no drug treatment is available and immunoglobulin therapy is still at the rudimentary stage. For anti-EboV drug development, druggable viral and host protein targets, including human Furin are under intense invest...
