The mutable vaccine for mutable viruses.
Immunotherapy 2017 June
Mutable viruses, such as HIV, pose difficult obstacles to prevention and/or control by vaccination. Mutable viruses rapidly diversify in populations and in individuals, impeding development of effective vaccines. We devised the 'mutable vaccine' to appropriate the properties of mutable viruses that undermine conventional strategies. The vaccine consists of a DNA construct encoding viral antigen and regulatory sequences that upon delivery to B cells target the enzymatic apparatus of 'somatic hypermutation' causing the construct to mutate one million-times baseline rates and allowing production and presentation of antigen variants. We postulate the mutable vaccine might thus anticipate diversification of mutable viruses, allowing direct control or slowing of evolution. Initial work presented here should encourage consideration of this novel approach.
