As I said in Marburg, the Pan-African Vaccine Manufacturing Project fits perfectly with Ghana’s roadmap for domestic vaccine development and manufacturing. Ghana is ready to play her role, and I reaffirm, once again, her determination to make the project work successfully.

GSK Plc is planning to launch a COVID shot that comes almost two years after Pfizer Inc. took the world by storm. For Phil Dormitzer, it’s a reminder of why he was hired at the UK drugmaker: to help return its immunization business to the top after it stumbled during the pandemic.

The virus-like particles (VLPs) of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is an attractive vaccine candidate that retains the natural conformation of the virion but lacks the viral genome to replicate, thus balancing safety and immunogenicity.

Preguntas frecuentesManual de usoDerechos de autorContacto/Sugerencias Whole genome, transcriptome, smallRNAome and methylome profiling during tomato-geminivirus interaction Autor Romero-Rodríguez, Beatriz; Kriznik, Maja; Morilla, Ian; Petek, Marko; Jiao, Chen; [et al.] Fecha 2022 Palabras clave Virus fitopatógenos; Tomates - Enfermedades y plagas Resumen Geminiviruses constitute the largest family of plant-infecting viruses with small, single- stranded DNA genomes that replicate through double-stranded DNA intermediates. Because of their limited coding capacity, geminiviruses use plant nuclear machinery to amplify their genomes, which are packaged into nucleosomes forming chromatin as multiple circular minichromosomes. Thus, viral minichromosomes must encounter the nuclear pathways that regulate host gene expression and chromatin states. DNA methylation and post-transcriptional gene silencing play critical roles in controlling infection of geminiviruses and this pathogen can counteract these host defense mechanisms and promote its infectivity. Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus (TYLCV) belongs to the Begomovirus genus and is transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci. With only seven viral proteins, TYLCV must create a proper environment for viral replication, transcription, and propagation. Behind the apparent simplicity of geminiviruses lies a complex network of molecular interactions with their host and their natural vector, which induces a wide variety of transcriptional, post-transcriptional and chromatin changes in the host. To better understand this virus-host interaction at a genetic and epigenetic level we carried out a global approach of the TYLCV-tomato interaction to generate integrated single-base resolution maps by Next-Generation Sequencing of the transcriptome, smallRNAome and methylome of the pathogen and the host. Total RNA and DNA was extracted from tomato–infected plants (three biological replicates) and analysed at 2, 7, 14 and 21-day post-infection (dpi). Analysis of the changes in host transcription during the infection and its correlation with changes in sRNA profiles (microRNA and phasiRNA) and DNA methylation patterns will be presented and discussed.

"As countries continue to pre-book pandemic supply, it is more and more likely that the limited vaccines available during the first months of any pandemic during the next few years will be sold out almost completely"
And what does everyone think happened in South Africa during most of 2009 and 2010?
Well, they probably don't - because not that many of them got sick. But THERE WAS NO VACCINE for the general population until LATE 2010 - when the chances of another round of H1N1pdm 2009 had dissipated due to summer coming on.
And the vaccine that HAD come into the the country in 2010 got used for medical personnel, and - for the 2010 World Cup staff.
Seriously, we need to do better than this - and responding QUICKLY to news of a pandemic would be the ticket.
