الوصف: |
We have utilized a de novo designed two-stranded α-helical coiled-coil template to display conserved α-helical epitopes from the stem region of hemagglutinin (HA) glycoproteins of influenza A. The immunogens have all the surface-exposed residues of the native α-helix in the native HA protein of interest displayed on the surface of the two-stranded α-helical coiled-coil template. This template when used as an immunogen elicits polyclonal antibodies which bind to the α-helix in the native protein. We investigated the highly conserved sequence region 421-476 of HA by inserting 21 or 28 residue sequences from this region into our template. The cross-reactivity of the resulting rabbit polyclonal antibodies prepared to these immunogens was determined using a series of HA proteins from H1N1, H2N2, H3N2, H5N1, H7N7, and H7N9 virus strains which are representative of Group 1 and Group 2 virus subtypes of influenza A. Antibodies from region 449-476 were Group 1 specific. Antibodies to region 421-448 showed the greatest degree of cross-reactivity to Group 1 and Group 2 and suggested that this region has a great potential as a "universal" synthetic peptide vaccine for influenza A. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
