VLP-BASED BIVALENT EBOLA VACCINES AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SAME
Disclosed herein are virus-like particle (VLP)-based bivalent vaccine compositions. The compositions may comprise a spherical retroviral Groupspecific Antigen (Gag) protein core and at least two Ebola glycoproteins. The at least two Ebola glycoproteins may be located at the exterior surface of the spherical Gag protein core, such that the VLP-based vaccine presents at least two Ebola glycoprotein antigens. In one aspect, the at least two Ebola glycoproteins are a Zaire (EBOV) glycoprotein, and a Sudan (SUDV) glycoprotein.
VLP-BASED MONOVALENT EBOLA VACCINES AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SAME
Disclosed herein are virus-like particle (VLP)-based monovalent vaccine compositions. The compositions may comprise a spherical retroviral Group-specific Antigen (Gag) protein core and a single Ebola glycoprotein selected from either a Zaire (EBOV) glycoprotein or a Sudan (SUDV) glycoprotein. The Ebola glycoprotein may be incorporated into the surface of the spherical Gag core, wherein said VLP-based vaccine presents a single Ebola glycoprotein antigen.
PARTICLE FOR THE ENCAPSIDATION OF A GENOME ENGINEERING SYSTEM
The present invention relates to a retroviral particle comprising a protein derived from the Gag polyprotein, an envelope protein, optionally an integrase and at least two encapsidated non-viral RNAs, the encapsidated non-viral RNAs each comprising an RNA sequence of interest bound to an encapsidation sequence, each encapsidation sequence being recognized by a binding domain introduced into the protein derived from the Gag polyprotein and/or into the integrase, and at least one of said sequences of interest of the encapsidated non-viral RNAs comprises a part coding a nuclease.
VIRAL PARTICLE-BASED PROTEIN-PROTEIN INTERACTION
The disclosure relates to a virus-like particle in which a protein complex is entrapped, ensuring the formation of the protein complex under physiological conditions, while protecting the protein complex during purification and identification. The disclosure further relates to the use of such virus-like particle for the isolation and identification of protein complexes.
Multivalent HIV Vaccine Boost Compositions and Methods of Use
Compositions and methods of use are provided to boost a primed immune response to HIV. More specifically, the present invention relates to vaccine compositions comprising an HIV-protein boost or an MVA-expressed Env protein and methods of use. Exemplary HIV proteins for protein boosts include proteins such as gp120 proteins B.6352111mutC and full-length single chain (FLSC), which has been modified to stabilize a CD4-induced Env structure. Exemplary MVAs expressing secreted Methods of administration and dosing regimens are also provided.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR DELIVERING CARGO TO A TARGET CELL
Provided herein are compositions, systems, and methods for delivering cargo to a target cell. The compositions, systems, and methods comprise one or more polynucleotides encoding one or more LTR retroelement polypeptides for forming a delivery vesicle and one or more capture moieties for packaging a cargo within the delivery vesicle. The one or more LTR retroelement polypeptides for forming a delivery vesicle may comprise two or more of an LTR retroelement gag protein, a retroelement envelope protein, a an LTR retroelement reverse transcriptase, or a combination thereof. The LTR retroelement polypeptide alone, the LTR retroelement envelope protein alone, or both the LTR retroelement-derived polypeptide and LTR retroelement envelope protein may be endogenous.
