Preclinical in vitro and in vivo profile of a highly-attenuated, broadly efficacious pneumolysin genetic toxoid

Pneumolysin is a highly conserved, cholesterol-dependent cytolysin that is an important Streptococcus pneumoniae virulence factor and an attractive target for vaccine development. To attenuate pneumolysin toxicity, a genetic toxoid was constructed with two amino acid changes, G293S and L460D, termed...
