20080286848 | RECOVERY OF RECOMBINANT HUMAN PARAINFLUENZA VIRUS TYPE 2 (HPIV2) FROM cDNA AND USE OF RECOMBINANT HPIV2 IN IMMUNOGENIC COMPOSITIONS AND AS VECTORS TO ELICIT IMMUNE RESPONSES AGAINST PIV AND OTHER HUMAN PATHOGENS - Recombinant human parainfluenza virus type 2 (HPIV2) viruses and related immunogenic compositions and methods are provided. The recombinant HPIV2 viruses, including HPIV2 chimeric and chimeric vector viruses, provided according to the invention are infectious and attenuated in permissive mammalian subjects, including humans, and are useful in immunogenic compositions for eliciting an immune responses against one or more PIVs, against one or more non-PIV pathogens, or against a PIV and a non-PIV pathogen. Also provided are isolated polynucleotide molecules and vectors incorporating a recombinant HPIV2 genome or antigenome. | 11-20-2008 |
20090081728 | PRODUCTION OF ATTENUATED NEGATIVE STRANDED RNA VIRUS VACCINES FROM CLONED NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCES - Attenuated, recombinant negative stranded RNA viruses suitable for vaccine use are produced from one or more isolated polynucleotide molecules encoding the virus. A recombinant genome or antigenome of the subject virus is modified to encode a mutation within a recombinant protein of the virus at one or more amino acid positions(s) corresponding to a site of an attenuating mutation in a heretologous, mutant negative stranded RNA virus. A similar attenuating mutation as identified in the heterologous negative stranded RNA virus is thus incorporated at a corresponding site within the recombinant virus to confer an attenuated phenotype on the recombinant virus. The attenuating mutation incorporated in the recombinant virus may be identical or conservative in relation to the attenuating mutation identified in the heterologous, mutant virus. By the transfer of mutations into recombinant negative stranded RNA viruses in this matter, candidate vaccine viruses are engineered to elicit a desired immune response against a subject virus in a host susceptible to infection thereby. | 03-26-2009 |
20100330120 | HUMAN PARAINFLUENZA VIRUSES HAVING SEPARATED P AND C GENES - The invention provides self replicating infectious recombinant paramyxoviruses where the P and C genes are separated rated. The recombinant paramyxoviruses preferably have one or more attenuating mutations and/or at least one temperature sensitive mutation and one non-temperature sensitive mutation. In some embodiments, the recombinant paramyxovirus has a separate variant polynucleotide encoding a C protein and a separate monocistronic polynucleotide encoding a P protein. Also provided are compositions and methods for using the recombinant paramyxoviruses as described herein. | 12-30-2010 |
20110143422 | RECOVERY OF RECOMBINANT HUMAN PARAINFLUENZA VIRUS TYPE 2 (HYPIV2) FROM CDNA AND USE OF RECOMBINANT HPIV2 IN IMMUNOGENIC COMPOSITIONS AND AS VECTORS TO ELICIT IMMUNE RESPONSES AGAINST PIV AND OTHER HUMAN PATHOGENS - Recombinant human parainfluenza virus type 2 (HPIV2) viruses and related immunogenic compositions and methods are provided.
