Integrated Pangenome, Immunoinformatics, and Structural Biology Approaches for the Design of a Multi-Epitope Vaccine Against Streptococcus Anginosus

Background: Streptococcus anginosus is an opportunistic bacterial pathogen associated with clinically significant infections, including brain abscesses, bacteremia, empyema, and infective endocarditis. The absence of an approved vaccine against this organism warrants investigation of potential preventive candidates. Ac...

In Silico Prediction and Structural Mapping of Linear B-Cell Epitopes in Andes Virus Glycoprotein as Potential Vaccine Candidates

Andes virus (ANDV), a pathogenic orthohantavirus associated with hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome, remains a public health concern because of its severe clinical outcomes and the absence of broadly approved vaccines for human use. The viral glycoprotein is a relevant antigenic target because of its surface localizat...

An OmpX mRNA-LNP vaccine induces protective humoral and cellular immunity against Klebsiella pneumoniae in a C57BL/6 mouse model

Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) poses a significant threat to global public health, and effective preventive measures are urgently needed. The widespread antibiotic resistance of KP underscores the critical need for vaccine-based strategies. Although numerous vaccine candidates against KP have been investigated, none has ye...

IDENTIFYING KLEBSIELLA PNEUMONIAE VACCINE CANDIDATES THROUGH PAN-GENOMICS

The rise of multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains and the lack of licensed vaccines highlight the urgent need for effective immunization strategies. The pan-genome analysis was performed to find out the core proteins of K. pneumoniae using reverse vaccinology approaches. Selected core proteins based on subc...

Design and Evaluation of a Multi-Epitope Vaccine Targeting Conserved Envelope and NS5 Proteins of Usutu Virus Using Immunoinformatics

An integrated reverse vaccinology strategy is used to identify conserved immunogenic regions from the Envelope protein and NS5 protein, and construct a multi-epitope vaccine for Usutu virus, predicting enhanced humoral and cellular immune-response patterns following repeated antigen administration.
