Description

Design a protein to bind CD131 and reduce inflammation! The protein CD131 is a signal receptor found on the surface of immune cells, which help to control inflammation. In some patients with severe asthma, an excess of signaling molecules causes over-activation of CD131, resulting in severe inflammation that closes the airway to the lungs. We'd like to design a protein that can bind to CD131, to block signaling molecules and reduce inflammation.
