Protein inhibitors were thought of as a new idea for creating vaccines due to their smaller size and better stability compared to antibody vaccines<ref name="Cao">DOI:10.1126/science.abd9909</ref>. These protein inhibitors, also referred to as mini-binders, interact with the receptor binding domain of the spike protein, <scene name='10/ | Protein inhibitors were thought of as a new idea for creating vaccines due to their smaller size and better stability compared to antibody vaccines<ref name="Cao">DOI:10.1126/science.abd9909</ref>.
