A Self-Adjuvanting Vaccine Platform: Optimization of Site-Specific Sortase A Mediated Conjugation of Toll-Like Receptor 2 Ligands onto the Carboxyl or Amino terminus of Recombinant Protein Antigens.

Abstract excerpt

Self-adjuvanting vaccines, consisting of recombinant protein antigens and covalently attached Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists, have the ability to simultaneously and efficiently deliver antigen and TLR adjuvant to antigen presenting cells (APCs). Here, an enzyme-mediated ligation approach was used to overcome difficulties in producing homogeneous, molecularly defined self-adjuvanting vaccine products under...
