Finding the Goldilocks zone: Modulating glycoprotein cleavage and fusogenicity optimizes the efficacy of a candidate Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus vaccine

2026-06-09

Abstract excerpt

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is the etiologic agent of a lethal hemorrhagic disease spread by ticks throughout Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia. The lack of approved medical countermeasures and fundamental understanding of molecular mechanisms of viral assembly and egress have thus far curtailed disease prevention. Here, we identify and characterize key residues within the viral glycoprote...
