Stabilised class III viral fusion proteins for more effective immunisation of rabies disease

Applications: Vaccination, rabies, herpes

Class III fusion proteins are expressed on clinically significant viruses and represent important vaccine immunogens. Mutation in the pre-fusion conformation stabilises the proteins, retaining epitopes which stimulate the production of potent neutralising antibodies which are clinically desirable.

Features	Benefits
Stabilises fusion proteins in pre-fusion conformation	Improves the protein’s efficacy as a vaccine Stimulates the production of pre-fusion conformation specific neutralising antibodies in human
Mutation prevents transformation from pre to post-fusion conformation	Achieves a similar effect to pre-fusion stabilising mutations used in licensed COVID-19 vaccines Allows manufacturing of fusion proteins in pre-fusion conformation for vaccination
To-date only one pre-fusion structure of a Class III fusion protein has been described	Novel, innovative technology
Class III fusion proteins of herpesvirus family are known to be targets of the neutralising antibodies	Can be applied to both rabies and herpes
