Structural and functional characterisation of the Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Virus RNA Dependent RNA Polymerase Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Virus (CCHFV) is found across Africa, Asia, and the Middle East where it can cause Haemorrhagic outbreaks with high case fatality rates. Central to the viral life cycl...

Really excited to have our work out in the world. CCHFV has a 450kDa L-Protein, about twice the size of L-Proteins from other segmented RNA viruses. We have used cryoEM and functional assays to begin to understand it this massive multifunctional protein works.

Another fantastic collaboration with @nicolerobb.bsky.social ky.social @loiccarrique.bsky.social sky.social and colleagues not on here yet.

This work was strongly supported by @instruct-eric.bsky.social and ISIDORe who helped us access embl-heidelberg cryoEM and the VIB for nanobody production.
