The construction and characterization of recombinant sindbis virus vectors as a platform for anthrax vaccine development
… against B. anthracis. Anthrax Vaccine Adsorbed (AVA) is the only licensed vaccine preparation currently used however, immunogenicity is variable and the boosting regimen is long-term and must be maintained to ensure continued protection. Protective antigen (PA), the chief component of AVA, is an …

Activity-dependent mitochondrial signaling drives GLR-1 dynamics and behavioral sensitization in C. elegans
… calcium handling changes in C. elegans AVA interneurons. We then use a mcu-1(lf) mutant to investigate the effects of reduced mitochondrial calcium influx on tagged GLR-1 transport and recruitment to synapses. ChRimson expression in AVA was used to optogenetically activate AVA to further …
