Advancing Ebola Virus Research: Insights from Outbreak Response and Intracellular Assembly Studies with abinScience Products
This article explores the latest advancements in Ebola virus research, focusing on the 2018–2020 Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) ring vaccination campaign using rVSV-ZEBOV-GP, which reduced Ebola virus disease (EVD) incidence by over 95% post-day 10, and recent insights into nucleocapsid assembly via in situ cryo-electron tomography, revealing a conserved NP–VP35 interface as a potential antiviral target. It details the Ebola virus’s pathogenesis, driven by key proteins (GP, VP35, VP24, NP), and challenges in prevention and treatment. abinScience’s recombinant proteins and antibodies, tailored for GP, NP, VP24, VP35, and VP40, support structural studies, neutralization assays, and antiviral screening, advancing translational research. The article includes visual aids mapping outbreaks, protein structures, and vaccination outcomes, alongside a catalog of abinScience’s research tools.
