Abstract
The present invention relates to stable HPV capsomeres which express at least one virus-neutralizing conformational epitope of a native HPV L1 protein which are substantially incapable of assembly into virus-like particles. These capsomeres, because of their smaller size, and immunogenic properties are well suited for use in HPV vaccines and as diagnostic agents. Moreover, because of their smaller size (relative to VLPs), these stable capsomeres may be easily purified and should result in HPV vaccines of enhanced homogeneity.
