- ItemOpen AccessAn investigation into the development of plant-derived vaccines against human papillomavirus type 11 and Cottontail rabbit papillomavirus(2004) Kohl, Thomas Oliver; Rybicki, Ed; Becker-Hitzeroth, Inga IThe principal object of this thesis was to investigate the feasibility of developing a novel plant-derived vaccine against Human papillomavirus type 11 (HPV -11), the causal agent of genital warts and laryngeal condylomas. A secondary objective was a proof-of-concept study using Cottontail rabbit papillomavirus (CRPV), as this is a viable animal model for human papillomavirus vaccines. Accordingly, I investigated and compared the potential of two different plant expression systems.
