In addition, MERS-CoV S1 protein adjuvanted with Advax and Sigma Adjuvant System induced low-titer neutralizing antibodies in dromedary camels with reduced and delayed viral shedding after MERS-CoV challenge, but high-titer neutralizing antibodies in alpacas with complete protection of viral shedding from viral infection, indicating that protection of MERS-CoV infection is positively correlated with serum neutralizing antibody titers (Adney et al., 2019). This evidence concerns the gene PSMD1 and viral infectious disease.
