This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. The major focuses are anthrax toxin and virulence factors from other high priority pathogens and emerging diseases, and their interactions with host factors, as well as host proteins involved in cell migration and inflammation. The work involves ab initio structure determination by MAD phasing, studies of protein-inhibitor complexes for rational drug design, and complexes with neutralizing antibodies for designing immune therapeutics.

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 主要重点是炭疽毒素和其他高优先级病原体和新兴疾病的毒力因子，以及它们与宿主因子的相互作用，以及参与细胞迁移和炎症的宿主蛋白质。这项工作涉及通过MAD定相的从头计算结构确定，用于合理药物设计的蛋白质抑制剂复合物的研究，以及用于设计免疫疗法的中和抗体复合物。
