Zika virus (ZIKV) infection of pregnant patients could cause a wide range of congenital abnormalities (including microcephaly) now collectively known as congenital ZIKV syndrome. A vaccine to prevent or significantly attenuate viremia in pregnant women and travelers to epidemic/endemic regions is needed to avert congenital ZIKV syndrome, and could also be useful to suppress epidemic transmission. Here we report a live-attenuated vaccine candidate that contains a 10-nucleotide deletion in the 3’ untranslated region of ZIKV genome (10-del ZIKV). The 10-del ZIKV is highly attenuated, immunogenic, and protective in the A129 mouse model. Critically, a single dose of 10-del ZIKV induced sterilizing immunity with a high level of neutralizing antibodies and completely prevented viremia after challenge. The immunized mice also developed a robust T cell response. Intracranial inoculation of one-day-old CD1 mice with 1×104 IFU of 10-del ZIKV caused no detectable disease, whereas infections with 10 IFU of wild-type ZIKV were lethal. Mechanistically, the 10-del ZIKV attenuated its virulence through decreased viral RNA synthesis and increased sensitivity to type-I interferon inhibition. The attenuated 10-del ZIKV was incompetent in infecting mosquitoes after oral feeding of spiked blood meals, representing an additional safety feature for use in non-endemic regions. Collectively, the safety and efficacy results warrant further development of this promising live-attenuated ZIKV vaccine candidate.
