NCIt synonyms : DNA Vaccine Targeting COVID-19 GX-19; COVID-19 DNA Vaccine GX-19; SARS-CoV-2 S-protein Antigen-expressing DNA Vaccine GX-19; SARS-CoV-2 S-protein DNA vaccine GX-19;
NCIt definition : A vaccine consisting of DNA plasmid encoding the severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus
2 (SARS-CoV-2) surface antigen spike (S) protein, with potential immunizing activity
against SARS-CoV-2. Upon administration of the SARS-CoV-2 S-protein DNA vaccine GX-19
via intramuscular injection followed by electroporation (EP), the DNA plasmids enter
the cells and the cells produce the SARS-CoV-2 S protein. This may activate both humoral
and cellular immune responses which may result in protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection.
S-protein, usually found on the surface of SARS-CoV-2, plays an essential role in
the infection pathway of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.;
