Current Zika virus (ZIKV) subunit vaccine development largely focuses on prM and E proteins, and the role of NS1 for immune response and protection is unclear. Here, Li et al. develop an attenuated VSV-based vaccine expressing a ZIKV prM-E-NS1 polyprotein and characterize immune response and protection in mice.
