Abstract

See full text

The recombinant expression and secretion from eucaryotic host cells, particularly Drosophila cells, of Flavivirus nonstructural (NS) protein, particularly NS1, is useful in combination with Flavivirus truncated envelope (E) protein to protect a host subject from infection and disease from Flavivirus species. Further, NS1 is useful as a diagnostic of flaviviral infection. Compositions of truncated flaviviral envelope protein and flaviviral nonstructural protein induce high titer virus neutralizing antibodies believed to be important in protection against flaviviral infection and which are useful in diagnosis of infection by the virus.
