摘要 |
The present invention is based on the provision of non-pathogenic Bacillus spores comprising: (i) a polynucleotide sequence encoding a phagosome membrane-rupturing agent; and (ii) a polynucleotide sequence encoding at least one further heterologous polypeptide. These may be used to deliver heterologous polypeptides to cells and in particular to phagocytic cells. Pharmaceutical compositions, vaccines and medicaments comprising the spores are provided and may be used for a variety of purposes including in immunisation and vaccination.
