摘要:
Recombinant papaya mosaic virus (PapMV) coat proteins comprising one or more antigenic peptides derived from an influenza virus antigen, such as from the M2e peptide, fused at a position within a predicted random coil within 13 amino acids of the N-terminus of the coat protein, uses thereof to prepare virus-like particles (VLPs), and uses of the VLPs in influenza vaccines.
摘要:
An affinity-conjugated antigen system (ACAS) comprising one or more antigens conjugated via a plurality of affinity moieties to a papaya mosaic virus (PapMV) or virus-like particle (VLP) derived from the coat protein of PapMV is provided. The affinity moieties are molecules or compounds that are capable of specifically binding to the antigen(s) of interest and which can be attached, for example by chemical or genetic means, to the coat protein of the PapMV or PapMV VLP. The ACAS can optionally further comprise one or more additional antigens, which may be the same as, or different to, the conjugated antigen(s) comprised by the ACAS. Also provided are immunogenic compositions, including vaccines, comprising an ACAS. The immunogenic compositions are useful in the treatment, including prevention, of various diseases and disorders for which a humoral and/or cellular response in the animal is required.
摘要:
Disclosed herein are methods of forming compounds and exemplary compounds in the nature of a conjugated compound demonstrating enhanced stability, which in some embodiments comprises a protein and virus particle mixed in a conjugation reaction to form a conjugate mixture, such that the conditions and steps of forming these products allow for unrefrigerated storage for longer time periods than previous approaches, thus making feasible access to such products over a global supply chain.

摘要:
Papaya mosaic virus and virus-like particles (VLPs) comprising ssRNA for use to inhibit cancer growth and metastasis. The PapMV and PapMV VLPs may be used alone or in combination with another cancer therapy, such as a chemotherapeutic, immunotherapeutic, or radiotherapy.
