Method of making immunogenic compositions comprising UV-irradiated, psoralen-inactivated, desialated human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) particles devoid of CD55 and CD59 in the viral membrane
A method of making an immunogenic composition using inactivated HIV. Inactivation of HIV is through psoralen and ultraviolet radiation. The composition is rendered more effective by the removal of structural features of HIV that interfere with immune response. In particular, sialic acid is removed to enhance immune recognition of the composition and to impair Complement Factor H binding. CD55 and CD59 are also removed to prevent the binding of Complement Factor H.;A method of making an immunogenic composition using inactivated HIV.
