Abstract: Compositions for protecting subjects from diseases caused by (+)SS RNA virus are described herein. The compositions include (i) a vector containing a DNA encoding a RNA molecule of an infectious (+)SS RNA virus operably linked to a eukaryotic RNA polymerase promoter and a carrier; or (ii) (+)SS RNA viruses obtained from eukaryotic cells transfected with the vector of (i) and a carrier.

Abstract: Described herein, are Bovine immunodeficiency virus gag protein (“Bgag”) recombinant virus like particles (“VLPs”) including one or more different types of target pathogen proteins. Also described, are compositions including the Bgag VLPs and the methods of making and using the novel Bgag VLP.

Abstract: Described herein are iDNA vectors and vaccines and methods for using the same. The iDNA generates live attenuated vaccines in eukaryotic cells in vitro or in vivo for pathogenic RNA viruses, particularly yellow fever virus and Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus. When iDNA is injected into the vaccine recipient, RNA of live attenuated virus is generated by in vivo transcription in the recipient's tissues. This initiates production of progeny attenuated viruses in the tissues of the vaccine recipient, as well as elicitation of an effective immune response protecting against wild-type, non-attenuated virus.
