Abstract
The present disclosure relates to recombinant single chain fragment variable (ScFv) binding to DEC-205 of dendritic cells having amino acid sequence selected from a group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 2, SEQ ID NO: 3, SEQ ID NO: 4, SEQ ID NO: 5, SEQ ID NO: 6, SEQ ID NO: 7, SEQ ID NO: 8, and SEQ ID NO: 9. Also disclosed are ScFv-antigen complex, a method for inducing immune response in a subject using the ScFv-antigen complex and a vaccine composition comprising the ScFv-antigen complex. The ScFv-antigen complex as disclosed herein can be used as immuno-contraceptives for mammals.
