  • Publication number: 20120219584
    Abstract: Immunogens and compositions are provided that encode a protein comprising an influenza A subtype H1 hemagglutinin glycan-shielded receptor binding domain A (RBD A) region and at least one influenza A subtype H1 hemagglutinin antigenic site wherein the antigenic site is not within the RBD-A region. Also provided are immunogens and compositions that encode an immunogenic protein comprising at least one epitope of the RBD-A region of a pandemic influenza A subtype H1 hemagglutinin antigen. Also provided are such proteins, nucleic acids that encode such proteins, and antibodies against such proteins. Also provided are methods to use such immunogens and compositions to elicit a neutralizing antibody immune response against influenza A subtype H1 virus.
