Chimeric papillomavirus-like particles expressing a foreign epitope on capsid surface loops

Abstract excerpt

Neutralization capsid epitopes are important determinants for antibody-mediated immune protection against papillomavirus (PV) infection and induced disease. Chimeric L1 major capsid proteins of the human PV type 16 (HPV-16) and the bovine PV type 1 (BPV-1) with a foreign peptide incorporated into several capsid surface loops self-assembled into pentamers or virus-like particles (VLP). Binding patterns of...
