The invention provided herein relates to vaccines that can be tailored to
achieve a desired immune response. Some compositions provided herein are
used for preferentially eliciting a humoral immune response while other
compositions are useful for preferentially eliciting a cell-mediated
response. Combinations of vaccine compositions are also useful for
eliciting both types of responses and/or for modulating the type of
immune response elicited. The invention also provides methods for
eliciting an immune response in an individual by administering the
compositions disclosed herein. These immune responses are useful for
protecting an individual from various types of diseases, infections, and
