Dissociation of the four-part TTR protein. The energy landscape shows stable states toward the bottom and unstable transition states toward the top. In the canonical pathway (red), the tetramer (T) dissociates via a native-like, compact transition state (‡1) into transient dimer intermediates (D) before full dissociation into monomers (M). In the newly discovered alternative pathway (blue), the tetramer dissociates through a more expanded transition state (‡2) directly into monomers. Credit: Jan-Hannes Schäfer, Scripps Research

    Scripps Research licenses urine dipstick test for river blindness to IVD Research

    IVD Research Inc., a contract development and manufacturing (CDMO)  firm in Carlsbad, California has licensed a novel biomarker for onchocerciasis—better known as river blindness—from Scripps Research in La Jolla, California. The reagent, developed in the laboratory of Kim Janda, PhD, a professor of chemistry at Scripps Research, will allow clinicians to monitor active infections of onchocerciasis.
