Gene Synthesis> | … Briefly, the coding sequence (cDNA) of individual vaccine antigens was generated by chemical synthesis by Genscript (USA) and inserted into a plasmid encoding a GP-deleted S segment of LCMV clone 13 under the control of a murine pol I promoter … | Get A Quote |
An important focus in vaccine research is the design of vaccine vectors with low seroprevalence and high immunogenicity. Replication-incompetent lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (rLCMV) vectors do not elicit vector-neutralizing antibody responses, and homologous prime-boost regimens with rLCMV vectors induce boostable and protective T cell responses to model antigens in mice. However, cellular and humoral immune responses following homologous rLCMV vaccine regimens have not been rigorously evaluated in non-human primates (NHPs). To test whether rLCMV vectors constitute an effective vaccine platform in NHPs, we developed rLCMV vectors expressing SIVmac239 Env and Gag antigens and assessed their immunogen... More
