CHIMERIC GENE FORMED OF THE DNA SEQUENCES THAT ENCODE THE ANTIGENIC DETERMINANTS OF FOUR PROTEINS OF L. INFANTUM, AND PROTEIN ENCODED BYSAID GENE, AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION USEFUL FOR PREVENTING AND/OR TREATING LEISHMANIOSIS IN ANIMALS OR HUMANS

摘要

Described is a chimeric gene formed by the DNA sequences that encode antigenic determinants of four proteins of L. infantum useful for preventing or treating canine Leishmaniosis. The protein encoded by the chimeric gene contains one or more of the antigenic determinants of four proteins of L. infantum encoded by the chimeric gene. Also described as pharmaceutical compositions for the prevention and/or treatment of Leishmaniosis.
