This disclosure relates to chimeric respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), live attenuated vaccine and immunogenic compositions, and methods of use. In certain embodiments, the chimeric respiratory syncytial virus has a mutated gene pattern encoding an RSV F protein having M at position 79, R at position 191, K at position 357, and/or Y at position 371.

Chimeric RSV, immunogenic compositions, and methods of use

In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to the polynucleotide sequences of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to isolated or recombinant nucleic acids and polypeptides comprising desirable nucleic acid sequences and mutations disclosed herein. In certain embodiments, isolated or recombinant RSV comprising the nucleic acids and polypeptides disclosed herein (e.g., attenuated recombinant RSV) are also provided, as are immunogenic compositions including such nucleic acids, polypeptides, and RSV genomes that are suitable for use as vaccines. Attenuated or killed RSV containing these nucleic acids and mutation in the form of copied nucleic acids (e.g., cDNAs) are also contemplated.

Recombinant RSV with silent mutations, vaccines, and methods related thereto

This disclosure relates to multivalent enterovirus vaccine compositions and uses related thereto. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to vaccine compositions comprising multivalent, mixtures of enterovirus (for example HRV) serotypes or recombinantly produced variants or recombinantly produced viral capsid proteins. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to methods of immunization comprising administering an effective amount of compositions disclosed herein to a subject diagnosed with, exhibiting symptoms of, or at risk of an enterovirus infection.

Multivalent enterovirus vaccine compositions and uses related thereto

In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to vectors containing bacterial nucleic acid sequences and a paramyxovirus gene. Typically, the expression vector comprises a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC), and a nucleic acid sequence comprising a respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) gene in operable combination with a regulatory element and optionally a reporter gene.
