A synthetic nanobody targeting RBD protects hamsters from SARS-CoV-2 infection

Here, the authors report the engineering, structural and biological characterization of synthetic nanobodies (sybodies) that display potent therapeutic activity against SARS-CoV-2 infection in animal models via targeting the virus receptor-binding domain.
