Fig. 3From: Codon optimization of antigen coding sequences improves the immune potential of DNA vaccines against avian influenza virus H5N1 in mice and chickensComparison of humoral responses in animals immunized with two variants of the DNA vaccine. The mice (a) and chickens (b) sera was tested for the presence of the anti-H5 HA antibodies after immunization with the variant containing the wild type H5 HA (HAw/pCI) and the variant containing H5 HA optimized to the chicken codon bias (K3/pCI). The results of one-dilution ELISA for individuals, medians and the 10th and 90th percentiles are shown for each group. The number of individuals was as indicated in Table 1, in Experiment 1 for mice and chickens, respectively. The values in the brackets are the geometric means calculated for the K3/pCI and GK/pCI groupsBack to article page
