• In order to overcome thevariable surface proteins,scientists targeted the internalproteins of the virus, which areless variable, or contain more“conserved” regions
• These whole proteins are toolarge to make synthetically,therefore, scientists deliveredthem to cells in the form of DNAvia a vector, to get the cells tomake these proteins
• Protein expression levels aredifficult to control and the vectorused to deliver the DNA tends tofavour the cells it was designedto infect, which can causedifficulties such as toleranceinduction
