"It is assumed that the proteosome-processing characteristics of fusion constructs can be predicted from the sum of the proteosome sensitivity of their components. In the present study, we observed that a fusion construct consisting of proteosome-degradable proteins does not necessarily result in a proteosome-degradable chimera," investigators in the United States report. "Conversely, fusion of proteosome-resistant proteins may result in a proteosome-degradable composite. We previously demonstrated that conserved influenza proteins can be unified into a single fusion antigen that is protective, and that vaccination with combinations of proteosome-resistant and...
