Animals vaccinated with DNA encoding secreting form of E2 glycoprotein of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) showed both CSFV specific antibody response and protection upon viral challenge though the native E2 was anchor membrane protein ( [28, 29] and Zeng et al., unpublished data). In the mice experiment, it was demonstrated that SARS-CoV specific antibodies could be induced by immunization with plasmids encoding S1, S2 and fragment of S1 subunit. The first paper on immunizing masques with structural genes of SARS-CoV, however, reported that co-delivery of three viral genes encoding S1, nucleocapsid (N), and membrane (M) protein could elicit a high titer of neutralizing antibody and T-cell response [24] . ./cache/cord-305341-nokybn2a.txt ./txt/cord-305341-nokybn2a.txt
