Summary: The world has faced several infectious disease outbreaks in the past two decades, with the novel coronavirus 2019 having a significant global impact. With millions infected and thousands dead, only a few Asian countries have managed to control the disease, but a second wave of infections is expected. Predicting inhibitors and targets for COVID-19 is urgent, with computer-aided drug design playing a crucial role in this process.

Summary: Antibodies play a crucial role in immune protection against SARS-CoV-2, with some being used as therapeutics. A study identified 377 human monoclonal antibodies, focusing on 80 that bind the virus spike, and found that most highly inhibitory antibodies can block the virus-receptor interaction. Novel binding modes of potent inhibitory antibodies were discovered, showing potential for prophylactic or therapeutic use in animal models.
