Abstract
⺠We designed a new synthetic peptide (NLS) to act as a nuclear localization signal. ⺠The peptide was included in DNAhsp65/cationic liposome as a gene vaccine. ⺠The peptide/DNAhsp65 complex was inserted into the liposome structure. ⺠Peptide inclusion presented in vivo therapeutic effects against tuberculosis. ⺠The pseudo-ternary complex is a promising gene vaccine for tuberculosis treatment.
