摘要:
A vaccine composition for prophylaxis and treatment of Chikungunya virus infections is disclosed which is capable of conferring immunity against any genotypic variants of the Chikungunya virus. More particularly the invention discloses particular nucleotide sequences and their translated proteins thereof, which may be expressed as Virus Like Particles which for use as a vaccine antigens against Chikungunya virus infections. The compositions disclosed in this invention are also protective against any genotypic variants of the Chikungunya virus which may be propagated by any suitable vector of the disease including Aedis albopictus and Aedis aegypti.
摘要:
The present invention provides pseudoinfectious alphavirus particles and methods of making them and using them to produce an immune response to an alphavirus in a subject.
摘要:
The present invention concerns wild-strains of Chikungunya virus isolated from patients exhibiting severe forms of infection and stemming from a human arbovirosis epidemy. The present invention also concerns polypeptide sequences and fragment thereof derived from their genome, the polynucleotide encoding same and their use as diagnostic products, as vaccine and/or as immunogenic compositions.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a protein receptacle capable of receiving several exogenous polyamino acid sequences, concomitantly, for expression in various systems and for different uses. The present invention relates to polynucleotides capable of generating the aforementioned protein receptacle. The present invention also relates to vector and expression cassette comprising the aforementioned polynucleotide. The present invention further relates to the cell comprising the aforementioned expression vector or cassette. The present invention further relates to a method for producing said protein receptacle and for pathogen identification or disease diagnosis in vitro. The present invention further relates to the use of said protein receptacle and kit comprising said protein receptacle for diagnostic purposes or as vaccine compositions.

Disclosed herein are recombinant baculoviruses suitable for detecting the presence of arthropod-borne viruses in a biological sample of a test subject. The information derived from the detection may also be used to render a diagnosis on whether the test subject is infected with the arthropod-borne viruses or not, so that proper course of treatment may be assigned to the subject.
摘要:
The present invention relates to DNAzymes (also known as deoxyribozymes, DNA enzymes, catalytic DNA, or DZ), which are conjugated to nanoparticles (NP) to facilitate the detection of nucleic acids. One aspect of the invention relates to compounds comprising DNAzymes conjugated to nanoparticles (DZ-NP), such as metallic or gold nanoparticles, and methods for their synthesis. Another aspect of the invention relates to methods of using the conjugated compounds to detect nucleic acids, such as genomic material or transcripts of infectious agents, such as viruses, exemplified by applications demonstrating visual detection of Flavivirus RNA molecules, such as dengue virus, or Alphavirus RNA molecules, such as chikungunya virus, in short time periods, using compositions comprising stable components.
