Induction of single and dual cytotoxic T‐lymphocyte responses to viral proteins in mice using recombinant hybrid Ty–virus‐like particles

Abstract: SUMMARYThe induction of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) responses to viral proteins is thought to be an essential component of protective immunity against viral infections. Methods for generating such responses in a reproducible manner would be of great value in vaccine development. We demonstrate here that the recombinant antigen-presentation system based on the yeast transposon (Ty) particle-forming p1 protein is a potent means of inducing CTL responses to a variety of viral CTL epitopes, including influenza vi… Show more

“…This property of p1 is used in biotechnology for the construction of hybrid VLP. There are examples of effective expression of both small peptides [Layton et al, 1996] and large proteins up to 72 kD in hybrid VLPs [Pöggeler et al, 1996]. These recombinant particles have been shown to be immunogenic, eliciting antibodies, T-helper and CTL responses against the inserted antigens.…”

“…A remarkable feature of the p1 and p1-381 proteins is their capacity to accommodate additional material ranging from small-peptide-sized fragments [Layton et al, 1996] to protein domains of 10-20 kDa and large proteins of up to 72 kDa [Adams et al, 1994a;Burns et al, 1994;Garcia-Valcarcel et al, 1997;Gilbert et al, 1997;Pöggeler et al, 1996]. This reflects the unusually flexible p1 assembly process, which is particularly tolerant of C-terminal fusions.…”

“…Various cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes from e.g. influenza virus have also been expressed on Ty VLPs [Layton et al, 1996]. These successes have led to the evaluation of Ty VLPs as an antigen delivery system for vaccines [Adams et al, 1994a;Burns et al, 1994;Kingsman et al, 1995].…”
