Researchers have designed innovative proteins that can neutralize lethal toxins found in snake venom.
The newly designed AI-generated proteins provide significant protection against lethal doses of three-finger toxins in mice, achieving survival rates ranging from 80% to 100%.
The designed antitoxins can be created through microbial synthesis, reducing costs and making treatments more accessible and affordable.
The methodologies employed in this study could be beneficial for tackling other diseases and lead to the emergence of less expensive medicines.
