Use of a linear b cell epitope of ns1 protein to treat dengue virus
TL;DR: In this article, isolated flavivirus polypeptides comprising an amino acid sequence at least 75% identical to one of SEQ ID NOs: 1-11, or a nucleic acid encoding the polyPEptide, and a viral-like particle encoding the PEptide.
