AdvertisementThe fight against Zika intensifies, and researchers from the University of North Carolina and the Duke University-National University of Singapore Medical School are doing their part by uncovering the mechanism behind how a potent antibody called C10 can prevent Zika infections from taking place.Publishing their findings in the journal Nature Communications, the researchers said that outlining the structural basis of neutralization offers support that C10 can be used in fighting Zika infections.A reaction between the antibody and the Dengue virus was previously identified.
