Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to compositions comprising self-assembling vaccines and methods of using the same. The disclosure provides compositions comprising an expressible nucleic acid sequence comprising a first nucleic acid sequence encoding a self-assembling polypeptide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a second nucleic acid sequence encoding a viral antigen or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The disclosure further provides compositions comprising an expressible nucleic acid sequence comprising a first nucleic acid sequence encoding a self-assembling polypeptide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a second nucleic acid sequence encoding a CD40 ligand polypeptide. Methods of using any of the disclosed compositions are also provided.

Abstract: Disclosed are compositions comprising an expressible nucleic acid sequence comprising a first nucleic acid sequence comprising a sequence that encodes an adjuvant polypeptide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a second nucleic acid sequence comprising a sequence that encodes an antigen from a virus or from a cancer. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence further comprises a nucleic acid sequence encoding at least one viral antigen or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. In some embodiments, the expressible nucleic acid sequence further comprises at least one nucleic acid sequence encoding a linker.

Abstract: The present invention relates to glycosylate HIV timer nanoparticles fused to self-assembling ferritin proteins which may be utilized as immunogens to enhance trafficking to lymph nodes and germinal centers and to heighten immune responses.

Abstract: The present application relates to immunogens of broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies specific for HIV-1, such as broad and potent neutralizing monoclonal antibodies specific for HIV-1 and their gernation and methods of use. Broad neutralization suggests that the antibodies can neutralize HIV-1 isolates from different individuals. Immunogens or vaccines which may elicit such antibody associated responses are useful in pharmaceutical compositions for the prevention and treatment of HIV, and for the diagnosis and monitoring of HIV infection.
