A preparation method of an interfering peptide targeting SARS-CoV-2 N protein includes the following steps: designing an interfering peptide segment targeting amino acids located in a dimerization domain of the SARS-CoV-2 N protein; fusing the interfering peptide segment with HIV-TAT; modifying the interfering peptide segment fused with HIV-TAT into a reverse isomer to obtain an amino acid sequence of a final interfering peptide NIP-V; and synthesizing the interfering peptide NIP-V using D-amino acids as raw materials. The above-mentioned interfering peptide drug NIP-V is able to interact with the dimerization domain of the SARS-CoV-2 N protein, inhibit the oligomerization of N protein, and then relieve the inhibition for innate immunity by the N protein, so as to achieve the purpose of inhibiting the replication of SARS-CoV-2 virus in cells and animals.

The present disclosure relates, generally, to compositions and methods for producing, purifying, and using circular RNA.

Plants and plant produced compositions which include Coronavirus S proteins are disclosed. These may be used as vaccines, boosters or immune modulators. The compositions have been shown to reduce the inflammatory cytokine response by altering cytokine levels when administered to an animal. The compositions may be used as an immune modulator to reduce/ameliorate or prevent the cytokine storm often associated with Coronavirus or other virus infection. The compositions may also be used to produce additive protection when administered with any vaccine composition to increase vaccine effectiveness. The compositions when used as vaccines have been shown to protect newborn animals through passive immunity.

Provided are a recombinant N protein of SARS-CoV-2 and methods for preparing the same and for purifying the same. The recombinant N protein of SARS-CoV-2 has an N protein sequence, wherein each of both ends of the N protein sequence are linked to an oligolysine fragment. An expression method for the recombinant N protein includes: a. providing a sample including the recombinant N protein; and b. performing cation exchange chromatography resin purification treatment at least once, and collecting breakthrough substance. The method may effectively improve the expression purity of the recombinant N protein.

A cell line of Accession No. NITE P-03458. A producing method of a cell line includes: a transfection step of transfecting a vector into a cell, where the vector includes a nucleic acid sequence encoding a nonstructural protein of a coronavirus, a reporter protein including a drug-resistant protein, and a structural protein of the coronavirus; and a selection step of performing selection on the cell obtained in the transfection step using a drug.

Described herein are modified SARS-CoV-2 coronaviruses. These viruses have been recoded, for example, codon deoptimized or codon pair bias deoptimized and are useful for reducing the likelihood or severity of a SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection, preventing a SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection, eliciting and immune response, or treating a SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection.

Disclosed is a second-order culture method for producing a suspended Vero cell vaccine, wherein same comprises the following steps: suspension culture growth of Vero cells, inoculation of a virus, dilution or addition of a production medium, secondary growth of cells, and optionally harvesting and purifying the virus fluid to produce the vaccine.

The present disclosure provides expression vectors and bacterial sequence-free vectors, such as ministring DNA (msDNA), for producing virus-like particles (VLPs) as well as compositions and methods thereof. In some aspects, the methods include treating viral infections in subjects with the vectors, compositions, and VLPs.
