Towards peptide vaccines against Zika virus: Immunoinformatics combined with molecular dynamics simulations to predict antigenic epitopes of Zika viral proteins
The recent outbreak of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection in Brazil has developed to a global health concern due to its likely association with birth defects (primary microcephaly) and neurological complications. Consequently, there is an urgent need to develop a vaccine to prevent or a medicine to treat the infection. In this study, immunoinformatics approach was employed to predict antigenic epitope...
متن کاملComputational modeling and analysis of prominent T-cell epitopes for assisting in designing vaccine of ZIKA virus
Article history: Received on: 07/04/2017 Accepted on: 09/05/2017 Available online: 30/08/2017 The Zika virus disease or Zika fever, regularly shows no or just mellow side effects, like an exceptionally gentle type of dengue fever. It spread eastwards from 2007-16 over the Pacific Ocean to the Americas, whereas in 2015 to 2016, Zika virus scourge achieved epidemic levels. In this study, the anti...
متن کاملComputational prediction and analysis of potential antigenic CTL epitopes in Zika virus: A first step towards vaccine development.
The Zika virus disease is an Aedes mosquito-borne disease caused by the ZIKA virus. The unavailability of vaccines or proper chemotherapeutic treatment emphasizes the need for the development of preventive and therapeutic vaccines. T cell specific epitopes have been used as vaccine candidates to generate desired immune responses against a variety of viral pathogens. Herein, the immune-informati...
متن کاملDesign of a Multi-epitope Peptide Vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 based on Immunoinformatics Data
Background and purpose: In 2019, the world has witnessed the emergence of a virus that caused acute respiratory distress syndrome in human with high mortality rates (approximately 3.7%). So far, no effective treatment has been proven against COVID-19. This study aimed at designing a multi-epitope vaccine combining several T-cell and B-cell epitopes of the SARS-CoV-2. Materials and methods: Bas...
متن کاملIn silico analysis and modeling of putative T cell epitopes for vaccine design of Toscana virus
The sandfly fever Toscana virus is an important etiological agent known to cause human neurological infections in endemic Mediterranean countries during summer season. In the present study, prediction and modeling of T cell epitopes of Toscana virus (TOSV) antigenic proteins followed by the binding simulation studies of predicted highest binding scorers with their corresponding MHC class II all...
