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

Phage Display Detection of Mimotopes that Are Shared Epitopes of Clinically and Epidemiologically Relevant Enterobacteria

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Background: Escherichia coli and Salmonella are etiologic agents of intestinal infections. A previous study showed the presence of shared epitopes between lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) of E. coli O157 and Salmonella.

PASD1: a promising target for the immunotherapy of haematological malignancies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In general, there is a lack of good immunotherapy targets within the spectrum of haematological malignancies. However haematopoietic stem cell transplants and continuing antigen discovery have allowed further insight into how further improvements in ...

Orf Virus-Based Vaccine Vector D1701-V Induces Strong CD8+ T Cell Response against the Transgene but Not against ORFV-Derived Epitopes

open access: yesVaccines, 2020
The potency of viral vector-based vaccines depends on their ability to induce strong transgene-specific immune response without triggering anti-vector immunity.

Stability-mediated epistasis constrains the evolution of an influenza protein. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
John Maynard Smith compared protein evolution to the game where one word is converted into another a single letter at a time, with the constraint that all intermediates are words: WORD→WORE→GORE→GONE→GENE. In this analogy, epistasis constrains evolution,

Human monoclonal islet specific autoantibodies share features of islet cell and 64 kDa antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The first human monoclonal islet cell antibodies of the IgG class (MICA 1-6) obtained from an individual with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus were cytoplasmic islet cell antibodies selected by the indirect immunofluorescence test on pancreas

A Novel Algorithm for Macromolecular Epitope Matching

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2009
Many macromolecules, namely proteins, show functional substructures or epitopes defined by characteristic spatial arrangements of groups of specific atoms or residues.

Epitope Mapping [PDF]

open access: yesBioDrugs, 2007
Antibodies are an effective line of defense in preventing infectious diseases. Highly potent neutralizing antibodies can intercept a virus before it attaches to its target cell and, thus, inactivate it. This ability is based on the antibodies' specific recognition of epitopes, the sites of the antigen to which antibodies bind.

Next-generation sequencing and immuno-informatics for designing a multi-epitope vaccine against HSV-1-induced uveitis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
BackgroundUveitis, characterized by intraocular inflammation, poses significant clinical challenges, often leading to vision impairment or blindness. Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a major cause of virus-induced uveitis. This study aims to design

Immunoproteomics Reveals Pathogen’s Antigens Involved in Homo sapiens–Histoplasma capsulatum Interaction and Specific Linear B-Cell Epitopes in Histoplasmosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Histoplasmosis is one of the most frequent systemic mycosis in HIV patients. In these patients, histoplasmosis has high rates of morbidity/mortality if diagnosis and treatment are delayed.
