AFRICAN SWINE FEVER VIRUS CHIMERIC PROTEIN, VACCINE COMPOSITION, PREPARATION METHOD AND USE THEREOF
Provided is an African swine fever virus chimeric protein. The chimeric protein comprises: (1) an African swine fever virus p72 domain I; (2) an African swine fever virus p72 domain II; (3) an African swine fever virus p72 domain III; and (4) an African swine fever virus antigenic protein. By using African swine fever virus p72 protein as a skeleton, the chimeric protein provided in the present invention will exhibit antigenic epitopes of African swine fever virus antigenic proteins p54, p30, CD2v, and p12, achieve a good immune effect, and can produce significant humoral and cell-mediated immune response.
Cocktail Vaccine of Recombinant African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) Antigen and Use Thereof
The present disclosure relates to a cocktail vaccine of a recombinant African swine fever virus (ASFV) antigen and use thereof, and belongs to the field of biotechnology pharmacy. The cocktail vaccine is prepared by combination of recombinant proteins p30-modified p54, p72 epitope-N-segment amino acid sequence of pE248R, and N-terminal amino acid sequence of CD2v-C-terminal amino acid sequence of pEP153R with an adjuvant. The present disclosure provides a method for expressing and purifying the three recombinant proteins, as well as a ratio of each recombinant protein and the adjuvant for preparing the cocktail vaccine.
DEVELOPMENT OF A NOVEL LIVE ATTENUATED AFRICAN SWINE FEVER VACCINE BASED IN THE DELETION OF GENE A137R
Provided herein are details on the construction of a recombinant African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) live attenuated vaccine for prevention of ASF caused by various strains of ASFV, such as the highly virulent Georgia 2007 isolate (“ASFV-G”). An exemplary vaccine comprises the ASFV-GΔA137R modified virus, a recombinant ASFV-G modified by deleting a portion of the A137R ORF rendering the A137R gene nonfunctional.
Immunogenic compositions and vaccines comprising African swine fever virus peptides and proteins and uses thereof
The present invention relates to African swine fever virus (ASFV) peptides and/or polypeptides as well as immunogenic fragments thereof, corresponding encoding AFSV oligonucleotides and/or polynucleotides as well as immunogenic fragments thereof, immunogenic compositions, vaccines and uses thereof.
RECOMBINANT VECTOR CONTAINING IMMUNOGENIC PROTEIN OF AFRICAN SWINE FEVER VIRUS, RECOMBINANT BACTERIA AND USE THEREOF
A recombinant vector containing the immunogenic protein of African swine fever virus, a recombinant bacterium and use thereof, and relates to the technical field of gene recombination. The recombinant vector can be used to construct a recombinant Lactobacillus expressing the immunogenic protein of African swine fever virus, and after mixing the Lactobacillus solution that can secrete protein p72 and protein p54, respectively, an oral live bacterial preparation for preventing African swine fever can be prepared. The oral live bacteria preparation prepared by the disclosure can safely, effectively and quickly prevent the infection of African swine fever virus to pigs, and does not contain an immune process.
EPITOPIC VACCINE FOR AFRICAN SWINE FEVER VIRUS
The present disclosure generally relates to a T-cell epitope compounds and compositions effective against African Swine Fever Virus (“ASFV”) and related diseases. Such T-cell epitope compounds and compositions include immunogenic T-cell epitope polypeptides (including concatemeric polypeptides and chimeric or fusion polypeptides), as well as nucleic acids, plasmids, vectors, and cells which express the polypeptides, pharmaceutical compositions, and vaccines, and the uses thereof. The present disclosure is particularly suited to produce vaccines for non-human animals, particularly for vaccinating swine against ASFV infection and related diseases.
RECOMBINANT ADENOVIRUS EXPRESSING AFRICAN SWINE FEVER VIRUS EP153R-EP402R PROTEIN AND CONSTRUCTION METHOD THEREOF
The present disclosure provides a recombinant adenovirus for expressing African swine fever virus (ASFV) EP153R-EP402R protein and a construction method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering. In the present disclosure, a recombinant adenovirus vector pAD-CMV-EGFP-EP153R-EP402R is obtained through a series of intermediate processes using a recombinant adenovirus shuttle vector pENTRE-EGFP-TOPO; the recombinant adenovirus vector is linearized to transfect AD293 cells, a recombinant virus is screened according to cytopathy formed by adenovirus infection, an adenovirus packaging process is achieved, and the recombinant adenovirus for expressing ASFV EP153R-EP402R protein is obtained, laying a foundation for the construction of a recombinant adenovirus vaccine for expressing the ASFV EP153R-EP402R protein.
AFRICAN SWINE FEVER VIRUS VACCINE
The invention is directed to a recombinant nucleic acid molecule comprising an expression cassette encoding a polyepitope comprising T-cell antigens from proteins of African Swine Fever Virus. The invention further relates to a viral particle, comprising said recombinant nucleic acid molecule, and to a viral particle comprising B-cell antigens of African Swine Fever Virus. The invention further relates to methods of stimulating an immune response in a pig comprising administering the recombinant molecule of the invention, and/or the viral particle of the invention, to the pig in an amount effective to induce an immune response.
FCE mRNA Capping Enzyme Compositions, Methods and Kits
The present disclosure relates to compositions, kits, and methods of making RNA vaccines having an appropriate cap structure. Systems, apparatus, compositions, and/or methods may include and/or use, in some embodiments, non-naturally occurring single-chain RNA capping enzymes. In some embodiments, an RNA capping enzyme may include an FCE variant having (a) an amino acid sequence at least 90% identical to positions 1 to 878 of SEQ ID NO: 1, and/or (b) one or more substitutions relative to SEQ ID NO: 1 at a position selected from positions corresponding to positions 215, 337, 572, 648, and 833 (e.g., a position selected from positions corresponding to position 215, 337, and 572) of SEQ ID NO: 1.
