Working with Mallinckrodt Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology George M. Whitesides, Collier bound multiple copies of the protein to a flexible backbone. The connected proteins block the toxin’s entrance into the cell. Separately, Collier has constructed a mutant protein that actually integrates itself into the pore that the toxin enters, blocking its action...
