Vaxjo ID 360       
Vaccine Adjuvant Name VISA       
Adjuvant VO ID VO_0005723
Description adjuvant that induces Th1 response       
Stage of Development Research       
Host Species for Testing Mouse       
Components virus-induced signaling adaptor (VISA) from retinoic acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I) signaling pathway       
Preparation VISA gene fragment was amplified from the pHA-VISA template by PCR using the primers 5′-CTGAAGCTTGACAATGCCGTTT-3′ (sense) and 5′-AGTCTCGAGAGGGCTTCACTAGTG-3′ (anti-sense). The PCR product was first digested using HindIII and XhoI and was then cloned into pVAX1 to generate pVISA       
Function activates NF-κB and IRF3 and thereby leads to the production of type I interferons
