    Snippet: Our group investigated the potential for making influenza pandemic rapid response vaccines in South Africa by making influenzavirus A/Vietnam/1204/04 (H5N1) haemagglutinin by transient expression in N. benthamiana: 13 our success opened up the possibility of making H5 HA as a reagent and potentially as a vaccine, by means hitherto not available in Africa. We went on to use the HA2 portion of the protein as a virus-like particle (VLP)-based displa.....
    Document: Our group investigated the potential for making influenza pandemic rapid response vaccines in South Africa by making influenzavirus A/Vietnam/1204/04 (H5N1) haemagglutinin by transient expression in N. benthamiana: 13 our success opened up the possibility of making H5 HA as a reagent and potentially as a vaccine, by means hitherto not available in Africa. We went on to use the HA2 portion of the protein as a virus-like particle (VLP)-based display vehicle in plant manufacture for the highly conserved M2e ectopic epitope as an elicitor of broadly neutralising antibodies to all influenzavirus A strains, as a candidate universal vaccine for humans and animals. 14
