To develop therapeutic approaches for addressing the COVID-19 pandemic. this project brings together researchers with multidisciplinary and complementary expertise in theoretical and computational biophysics (PI Vashisth. UNH). biophysical chemistry and NMR spectroscopy (co-PI Varga. UNH). and small- molecule drug discovery (co-PI Doug E. Frantz. UTSA). The partnership and collaboration are timely and strategic in that the first experimental structure of the protease enzyme and its potential inhibitors have just been reported. Dr.

Complete concentration analysis of eprinomectin in serum obtained from blood samples collected at the USDA, ARS, Cattle Fever Tick Research Laboratory (CFTRL) in collaboration with the ARS scientists in support of the continuation of research studying the interaction between Bm86 vaccine and a long-acting eprinomectin injectable formulation. Blood samples collected during the study will be processed at the USDA, ARS, CFTRL to obtain serum. ARS will provide the serum samples to the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) to conduct the analysis per the one year field study.
