Zusammenfassung:Recombinant fusion proteins including a dengue virus EIII and an E2 subunit derived from a thermophilic bacterium are described. Also described are expression vectors including a polynucleotide that encodes the recombinant fusion protein and a promoter. Also described are vaccine compositions that include either the recombinant fusion protein, polynucleotide, or both. Also described are methods of generating an immune response to dengue virus serotype 2 comprising administering one or more of the disclosed vaccine compositions.
