A recombinant human HLA-class I antigen linked to dextran elicits innate and adaptive immune responses.

The objective of this study was to produce and evaluate the immunogenic potential of a recombinant HLA-class I antigen linked to dextran. The HLA-A*0201 heavy chain and beta2 microglobulin were cloned by PCR amplification of overlapping oligonucleotides and produced in E. coli.

A Plasmodium falciparum GLURP-MSP3 chimeric protein; expression in Lactococcus lactis, immunogenicity and induction of biologically active antibodies.

Plasmodium falciparum malaria is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. To evaluate the efficacy of a possible vaccine antigen against P. falciparum infection, a fusion protein, derived from P.
