A Mutant Library Approach to Identify Improved Meningococcal Factor H Binding Protein Vaccine Antigens
Factor H binding protein (FHbp) is a virulence factor used by meningococci to evade the host complement system. FHbp elicits bactericidal antibodies in humans and is part of two recently licensed vaccines. Using human complement Factor H (FH) transgenic mice, we previously showed that binding of FH...
