Single-component multilayered self-assembling nanoparticles presenting rationally designed glycoprotein trimers as Ebola virus vaccines

Ebola virus glycoprotein (GP) is a major target for vaccine design. Here, the authors identify mutations to improve GP stability and yield, design two multilayered nanoparticle carriers, and demonstrate good immunogenicity of the modified GP on nanoparticles in mice and rabbits.
