  • Recombinant peptide vaccines against ticks, and nucleotide sequences coding for the recombinant peptides
    Patent number: 10584151
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology and genetic engineering, and particularly to the expression of recombinant peptides. The inoculation thereof in cattle results in the production of an immune response capable of adversely affecting Rhipicephalus microplus ticks, which feed on the inoculated cattle, decreasing the number and reproductive capacity of this tick species. Such recombinant immunogen can be used as an effective vaccine for tick control. The technical goal is the design and construction of two synthetic genes made with preferred codons for Pichia pastoris and expression thereof from a recombinant peptide, which consists in a continuous sequence and of a recombinant peptide, respectively, and the drug composition based of said recombinant polypeptide.
