Document Summary

Discuss mechanism by which streptococcus pneumoniae exert their pathogenic effect and the implication of vaccination. Discuss mechanism by which neisseria gonorrhoeae exert their pathogenic effect and the implication of vaccination. Discuss mechanism by which neisseria meningitidis exert their pathogenic effect and the implication of vaccination. Using a specific example, describe how phase variation alters the surface of a bacterial pathogen. Using a specific example, describe how antigenic variation alters the surface of a bacterial pathogen. Using examples, describe in detail, strategies by which recombinant subunit vaccines may be used to prevent infectious diseases. Using examples, describe in detail strategies by which recombinant vaccines based on vaccinia virus are produced and used to prevent infectious diseases. Using a diagram, describe the strategy used by norvatis to identify chlamydia trachomatis ags that promote a cd4-th1 immune response. Using a diagram, describe he 3-step approach employed by norvatis to develop an experimental gas vaccine.
