Characterization of protective immune responses induced by pneumococcal surface protein A in fusion with pneumolysin derivatives.
Pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA) and Pneumolysin derivatives (Pds) are important vaccine candidates, which can confer protection in different models of pneumococcal infection. Furthermore, the combination of these two proteins was able to increase protection against pneumococcal sepsis in mice....
