Developing a low-cost and accessible COVID-19 vaccine for global health 2020-07-29 .txt text/plain 2322 117 43 Our group is developing a two-pronged approach to advance recombinant protein-based vaccines to prevent COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 and other coronavirus infections. One vaccine is based on a yeast-derived (Pichia pastoris) recombinant protein comprised of the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV formulated on alum and referred to as the CoV RBD219-N1 Vaccine. In addition to their low cost and suitability for use in public immunization programs in lowand middle-income countries, we pursued RBD recombinant protein-based vaccines as a technology to maximize safety relative to other platforms, such as virus vectors that have previously been found to induce immune enhancement. Optimization of the Production Process and Characterization of the Yeast-Expressed SARS-CoV Recombinant Receptor-Binding Domain (RBD219-N1), a SARS Vaccine Candidate Potential for developing a SARS-CoV receptor-binding domain (RBD) recombinant protein as a heterologous human vaccine against coronavirus infectious disease (COVID)-19 Yeast-Expressed SARS-CoV Recombinant Receptor-Binding Domain (RBD219-N1) Formulated with Alum Induces Protective Immunity and Reduces Immune Enhancement ./cache/cord-260412-yjr83ef6.txt ./txt/cord-260412-yjr83ef6.txt
