Accelerating CBPP research towards a better vaccine through application of synthetic biology

Objectives: Our long-term perspective is to apply key synthetic biology technologies to gain knowledge for vaccine development against diverse mycoplasma infections; the current project will show proof of principle. Two approaches will be pursued. 1. We propose to transfer the synthetic biology...
