TETRAVALENT PNEUMOCOCCAL SEROGROUP 6Z

摘要

The present embodiments provide for a recombinant pneumococcal serotype designated (6Z) characterized as having the genotype for a tetravalent hybrid capsular polysaccharide having the capsular polysaccharide repeating unit of serotypes (6A, 6B, 6C and 6D). In at least one embodiment, the recombinant tetravalent pneumococcus produces a capsular polysaccharide in which a single polymer contains the repeating units characteristic of serotypes (6A, 6B) and (6D); and may also include the repeating unit characteristic of serotype (6C).
