Mutation Profile of HPV16 L1 and L2 Genes in Different Geographic Areas

open access: yesViruses, 2022
The causal relationship between HPV and cervical cancer in association with the high prevalence of high risk HPV genotypes led to the design of HPV vaccines based on the major capsid L1 protein.

Critical review of conformational B-cell epitope prediction methods [PDF]

open access: yesBriefings in Bioinformatics, bbac567, 1-9, 2023, 2023
Accurate in-silico prediction of conformational B-cell epitopes would lead to major improvements in disease diagnostics, drug design and vaccine development. A variety of computational methods, mainly based on machine learning approaches, have been developed in the last decades to tackle this challenging problem.

IgE-binding epitopes: a reappraisal [PDF]

open access: yesAllergy, 2011
Here, we discuss various questions related to IgE epitopes: What are the technical possibilities and pitfalls, what is currently known, how can we put this information into hypothetical frameworks and the unavoidable question: how useful is this information for patient care or allergenicity prediction?

Designing a Multi-Epitope Vaccine against Toxoplasma gondii: An Immunoinformatics Approach

open access: yesVaccines, 2022
Infection with the intracellular apicomplexan parasite Toxoplasma gondii causes serious clinical outcomes in both human and veterinary settings worldwide. Although approximately one-third of the world’s population is infected with T. gondii, an effective

Quantitative Prediction of Linear B-Cell Epitopes [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedical Statistics and Informatics. Vol. 2, No.1, 2017, pp.1-3, 2017
In scientific literature, there are many programs that predict linear B-cell epitopes from a protein sequence. Each program generates multiple B-cell epitopes that can be individually studied. This paper defines a function called that combines results from five different prediction programs concerning the linear B-cell epitopes (ie., BebiPred ...

A Basic Molecular Analysis of the Diabetic Antigen GAD by Homology Modelling. Principles of the Method and Understanding of Antigenicity and Binding Sites

open access: yesPteridines, 2007
Functional specificity of a protein is linked to its structure. A growing section of bioinformatics deals with the prediction and visualization of protein 3D structures.

Finding Epitopes with Computers

open access: yesChemistry & Biology, 2013
The goal of structural vaccinology is to enable the design and engineering of improved antigens. In a recent issue of Chemistry & Biology, Gourlay and colleagues provided evidence that structure-based computational methods allow prediction of B cell epitopes, a crucial step for antigen selection and optimization in vaccine development.

BCEPS: A Web Server to Predict Linear B Cell Epitopes with Enhanced Immunogenicity and Cross-Reactivity

open access: yesCells, 2021
Prediction of linear B cell epitopes is of interest for the production of antigen-specific antibodies and the design of peptide-based vaccines. Here, we present BCEPS, a web server for predicting linear B cell epitopes tailored to select epitopes that ...
