Enhancement of DNA Vaccine Potency by Linking Marek's Disease Virus Type 1 VP22 to an Antigen

C03895: Enhancement of DNA Vaccine Potency by Linking Marek's Disease Virus Type 1 VP22 to an Antigen Technical Details: We have previously employed an spreading strategy using herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) VP22 protein to enhance DNA vaccine potency because DNA vaccines lack the intrinsic ability to amplify in cells. Recently, studies have demonstrated...
