live attenuated Brucella ovis strain H38 delta wbkF delta wadC vaccine |
| Vaccine Information |
- Vaccine Name: live attenuated Brucella ovis strain H38 delta wbkF delta wadC vaccine
- Target Pathogen: Brucella spp.
- Target Disease: Brucellosis
- Vaccine Ontology ID: VO_0009609
- Type: Live attenuated vaccine
- Status: Research
- Host Species for Licensed Use: Sheep
- Host Species as Laboratory Animal Model: Mus musculus; Ovis aries (rams)
- Antigen: wbkF deletion; wadB deletion; wadC deletion
- Preparation: Live attenuated rough mutants with deletions in wbkF plus wadB or wadC genes; administered subcutaneously in mice. (Lopez et al, 2026)
- Description: Mutants of H38ΔwbkF vaccine with additional deletions in wadB or wadC genes, altering sugars of the rough LPS core tetrasaccharide branch, were constructed to minimize serological interference. Efficacy: These core-defective mutants were over-attenuated and failed to protect mice against infection. Immune response: Not reported beyond attenuation and protection failure. (Lopez et al, 2026)
