PNEUMOLYSIN MUTANTS AND PNEUMOCOCCAL VACCINES MADE THEREFROM
摘要
Mutants of pneumolysin that are non-toxic by reason of amino acid substitutions have been constructed. These mutants elicit an immune response in animals that is reactive to wild-type pneumolysin. The invention also encompasses vaccines for humans based on these mutants, including vaccines comprising conjugates with pneumococcal capsular polysaccharides.
