Design of B‐Cell Multi‐Epitope Subunit Vaccines Against Glaesserella parasuis by Reverse Vaccinology: An In Silico and In Vivo Study

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Glässer’s disease caused by Glaesserella parasuis (GPS) is a severe disease that results in substantial economic losses to the swine industry worldwide. Here we describe a multiepitope vaccine cocktail (MEVC) that was designed using reverse vaccinology and immunoinformatics. The MEVC was comprised of three multiepitope subunits (MESs, designated as TB,
