Title:
INFLUENZA VACCINES, ANTIGENS, COMPOSITIONS, AND METHODS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/036970
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the intersection of the fields of immunology and protein engineering, and particularly to antigens and compositions useful in inducing or enhancing an immune response agains influenza antigens. Provided are recombinant protein antigens, compositions, and methods for the production of such antigens in plants. In some embodiments, influenza antigens include hemagglutinin polypeptides, neuraminidase polypeptides, and/or combinations thereof.
