摘要:
Chimeric flaviviruses that include non-coding regions, non-structural proteins, a capsid (C) protein and a portion of a premembrane (prM) signal sequence from an attenuated or wild-type dengue serotype 2 virus (DENV-2), and a portion of a prM signal sequence, a prM protein and at least a portion of an envelope (E) protein from a Zika virus (ZIKV) are described. Also described are immunogenic compositions and methods for eliciting an immune response in a subject, such as an immune response directed against ZIKV.
