Human Papillomavirus Type 11 L1 Protein (HPV11 L1)

Target
HPV11 L1
Molecular classification
Viral structural protein, Capsid protein
01

Overview

The major capsid protein L1 from Human Papillomavirus Type 11 (HPV-11) is a key component in prophylactic HPV vaccines. L1 self-assembles into virus-like particles (VLPs) that mimic the native virion structure but lack viral DNA, rendering them non-infectious. These VLPs are highly immunogenic, inducing strong type-specific neutralizing antibody responses that prevent HPV-11 infection. Vaccines containing HPV-11 L1 VLPs, such as Gardasil and Gardasil 9, are used to protect against diseases caused by HPV types including genital warts and respiratory papillomatosis. Recombinant HPV11 L1 is produced primarily in *Saccharomyces cerevisiae*.
