Immunization with a recombinant antigen composed of conserved blocks from TSA56 provides broad genotype protection against scrub typhus

Scrub typhus is an acute febrile disease caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi infection. Despite the wide range of approaches explored during the last seventy years, an effective prophylactic vaccine is not yet available. Here, we developed a novel recombinant antigen derived from conserved regions of 5...
