Inducing systemic and mucosal immune responses to B-T construct of F1 antigen of Yersinia pestis in microsphere delivery
Vaccine
Plague is a zoonotic disease caused by Yersinia pestis, an etiological agent of pneumonic and bubonic plague. There is a need for an
improved plague vaccine that may overcome the limitation of presently available whole cell vaccine. An alternative approach described here,
is the use of protective epitopes from immunodominant antigen of Y. pestis. One such antigen is the F1 antigen, a major envelope and virulent
protein that possess antiphagocytic and anti-microbial properties. The present study was aimed
