Design and validation of a novel multi-epitopes vaccine against hantavirus
Hantavirus is a member of the order Bunyavirales and an emerging global pathogen. Hantavirus infections have affected millions of people globally based on available epidemiological data and research studies. Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) are the two main human diseases associated with hantavirus ...

Design of a multi-epitope vaccine candidate against Brucella melitensis
AbstractBrucella is a typical facultative intracellular bacterium that can cause zoonotic infections. For Brucella, it is difficult to eliminate with current medical treatment. Therefore, a multi-epitope vaccine (MEV) should be designed to prevent Brucella infection. For this purpose, we applied the reverse vaccinology approach from Omp10, Omp25, Omp31
