Designing a multi-epitope vaccine against SARS-CoV-2: an immunoinformatic approach

open access: yesИнфекция и иммунитет
Background.An outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 in 2019 has brought a great challenge to public health and rapid identification of immune epitopes for designing an effective vaccine for different variants of SARS-CoV-2 is necessary at the time of the pandemic ...

A Supercluster of Neutralizing Epitopes at the Interface of Ricin’s Enzymatic (RTA) and Binding (RTB) Subunits

open access: yesToxins, 2017
As part of an effort to engineer ricin antitoxins and immunotherapies, we previously produced and characterized a collection of phage-displayed, heavy chain-only antibodies (VHHs) from alpacas that had been immunized with ricin antigens.

An Introduction to B-Cell Epitope Mapping and In Silico Epitope Prediction

open access: yesJournal of Immunological Research, 2016
Identification of B‐cell epitopes is a fundamental step for development of epitope‐based vaccines, therapeutic antibodies, and diagnostic tools. Epitope‐based antibodies are currently the most promising class of biopharmaceuticals. In the last decade, in‐

Single cis‐elements in brassinosteroid‐induced upregulated genes are insufficient to recruit both redox states of the BIL1/BZR1 DNA‐binding domain

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phytohormone brassinosteroid‐induced gene regulation by the transcription factor BIL1/BZR1 involves redox‐dependent DNA‐binding alternation and interaction with the transcription factor PIF4. The reduced BIL1/BZR1 dimer binds preferred cis‐elements, while oxidation alters its oligomerization state and disrupts DNA‐binding ability.

Identification of an N-terminal glycogen synthase kinase 3 phosphorylation site which regulates the functional localisation of polycystin-2 in vivo and in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
PKD2 is mutated in 15% of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Polycystin-2 (PC2), the PKD2 protein, is a nonselective Ca2 + -permeable cation channel which may function at the cell surface and ER. Nevertheless, the factors

Development of a subunit vaccine against the cholangiocarcinoma causing Opisthorchis viverrini: a computational approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Opisthorchis viverrini is the etiological agent of the disease opisthorchiasis and related cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). It infects fish-eating mammals and more than 10 million people in Southeast Asia suffered from opisthorchiasis with a high fatality rate.

Application of built-in adjuvants for epitope-based vaccines

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
Several studies have shown that epitope vaccines exhibit substantial advantages over conventional vaccines. However, epitope vaccines are associated with limited immunity, which can be overcome by conjugating antigenic epitopes with built-in adjuvants (e.

Structural dynamics of the plant hormone receptor ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The present study unveils the structural and signaling dynamics of ETR1, a key plant ethylene receptor. Using an optimized nanodisc system and solution NMR, we captured full‐length ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment. Our findings reveal dynamic domain uncoupling and Cu(I)‐induced rigidification, providing the first evidence of metal‐triggered ...

Quantification of epitope abundance reveals the effect of direct and cross-presentation on influenza CTL responses

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The magnitude of T cell responses to infection is a function of the naïve T cell repertoire combined with the context and duration of antigen presentation. Using mass spectrometry, we identify and quantify 21 class 1 MHC-restricted influenza A virus (IAV)
