Downregulating Viral Gene Expression: Codon Usage Bias Manipulation for the Generation of Novel Influenza A Virus Vaccines
29 May 2015
Abstract excerpt
Vaccination represents the best option to protect humans against influenza virus. However, improving the effectiveness of current vaccines could better stifle the health burden caused by viral infection. Protein synthesis from individual genes can be downregulated by synthetically deoptimizing a gene's codon usage. With more rapid and affordable nucleotide synthesis, generating viruses that contain genes with...
