Abstract
The subject application provides a genetically modified recombinant facultative intracellular invasive bacterial pathogen (RFIIBP) or a recombinant attenuatedvaccine (RASV) strains encoding Zika virus (ZIKV) antigens. These strains exhibit high immunogenicity, complete safety, and attenuation, and are unable to persist or be shed in an infective or viable form. These RFIIBPs and RASVs also exhibit regulated delayed attenuation in vivo, regulated delayed in vivo synthesis of protective ZIKV antigens. Methods of inducing mucosal, systemic and cellular immunities in hosts are also provided and antibodies produced using the disclosed RFIIBPs and RASVs can comprise neutralizing antibodies against ZIKV that do not crossreact with Dengue virus (DENV).
