The HA1 genes from influenza A strains A/Puerto Rico/8/1934 H1N1 (A/PR/8/34) and A/Hatay/2004 H5N1 were each cloned in Pichia pastoris vectors in the correct reading frame with the yeast a-factor secretion signal and the C-terminus His-tag, resulting in simple, fast purification of expressed H1HA1 and H5HA1 protein from the culture medium. Mice vaccinated with the purified proteins showed robust T cell, anti-HA1 IgG responses and developed a high antibody response for hemagglutination inhibition (HI) at titer 7.6 log 2. Chickens vaccinated with a dose of 200 mu g of H5HA1 mixed with either Montanide or Freund's adjuvants gave HI values of up to 7 log(2) at the third week comparable with a licensed inactivated H5N1 vaccine.
