  • Patent number: 10316078
    Abstract: Disclosed are isolated antibodies, or antigen binding fragments thereof, that bind to dengue virus epitopes, as well as kits containing them, compositions containing them, and passive vaccines comprising them, in one embodiment, the antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof is capable of binding to a whole dengue virus particle better than binding to a dengue virus surface glycoprotein. Also disclosed are methods of using the antibodies or antigen binding fragments thereof, nucleic acids encoding them, vectors expressing the nucleic acids, host producing them, and methods of manufacturing them.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 17, 2016
    Date of Patent: June 11, 2019
    Assignees: AGENCY FOR SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND RESEARCH, NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE
    Inventors: Cheng-I Wang, Katja Fink, Paul Macary, Roland Zuest, Meihui Xu

  • Publication number: 20150231226
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of eliciting an immune response and a method of vaccination comprising administration of a mutated flavivirus. The mutated flavivirus comprises at least one mutation in a nucleic acid sequence encoding for the non-structural protein 5 of the flavivirus sequence resulting in inactivation of the 2?O-methyltransferase.
