We created this animation of the corona virus and have made it freely available to download, share and use. We ask that you credit Fusion Medical Animation if you do have a use for the visuals. High resolution images can be downloaded here: https://unsplash.com/@fusion_medical_... • These images have been now downloaded over 5 millions times! • Since sharing these images we have been contacted by people who intend to use them in very different ways; from university lecturers wishing to use them as part of their (now) virtual teaching while the college is shut to a firms creating apps to help people to know how to act during this pandemic. • The making of the Covid-19 model: • This model was created by assembling together parts from related 3 coronavirus structures that are available in public databases, such as RCSB PDB. • • The components that we used: • 1) S protein (PDB code – 6CRV) • 2) E protein (PDB code – 5X29) • 3) M protein (PDB code – 3I6G) • • The M protein shown is complexed with HLA-A*02 (human leukocyte antigen serotype A*02). The distribution of these proteins on the surface of the virus was aligned by a random algorithm. The overall representation surface protein density has been reduced to help show spike, envelope, and membrane proteins. • • The lipid membrane itself was generated using a particle system to produce a random and organic result. The current Covid-19 visualisation represents the surface structure of the virus. At the time of writing the inner structures are being sourced and incorporated into a new visualisation. Models were imported and distributed in 3d Studio Max, rendered with Redshift and composited in Nuke. • • We have cross-referenced these models with: • 3d Form: Structures provided by Korkinlab: http://korkinlab.org/wuhan • Visuals Refs: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-... https://www.wpi.edu/news/wpi-research...
