    摘要: A system for expressing antigenic polypeptides in oligomeric form fuses the antigenic polypeptide to an oligomerisation polypeptide such that the oligomerisation polypeptide can interact with other oligomerisation polypeptides and bring multiple copies of the antigenic polypeptide into close proximity in the form of an oligomer. Expressing the polypeptides in oligomeric form in this way can improve their immunogenicity compared to a monomeric form.

    摘要: A known surface adhesin (NadA) in Neisseria meningitidis contains sequences which correspond to the fusion peptide, HR1 repeat and HR2 repeat seen in the envelope protein of viruses. Fusion inhibitors may thus be used to inhibit meningococcal infection, and the invention provides a compound that can bind to the heptad repeat sequence(s) HR1 and/or HR2 of the NadA adhesin on the surface of a meningococcus, thereby inhibiting the ability of the meningococcus either to infect a host organism or to spread an existing infection.
