DRI_Approach |
denotes |
pheral antigen plays a crucial role in Echinococcus granulosus pathogenicity. |
T2 |
230-418 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
Considering the diversity of antigen among different EG95 isolates, it seems to be an ideal antigen for designing a universal multivalent minigene vaccine, so-called multi-epitope vaccine. |
T3 |
419-576 |
DRI_Approach |
denotes |
This is the first in silico study to design a construct for the development of global EG95-based hydatid vaccine against E. granulosus in intermediate hosts. |
T4 |
577-692 |
DRI_Approach |
denotes |
After antigen sequence selection, the three-dimensional structure of EG95 was modeled and multilaterally validated. |
T5 |
693-876 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
The preliminary parameters for B-cell epitope prediction were implemented such as the possible transmembrane helix, signal peptide, post-translational modifications and allergenicity. |

) were utilized for multiple sequence alignment and then for engineering the vaccine construct. |
T10 |
1175-1345 |
DRI_Approach |
denotes |
T-helper based epitopes were predicted by molecular docking between the high frequent ovar class II allele (Ovar-DRB1*1202) and hexadecamer fragments of the EG95 protein. |

vaccine based on T-helper epitope with high-binding affinity to the ovar MHC allele. |
T13 |
1517-1595 |
DRI_Approach |
denotes |
This designed construct was analyzed for different physicochemical properties. |
T14 |
1596-1674 |
DRI_Background |
denotes |
It was also codon-optimized for high-level expression in Escherichia coli k12. |
T15 |
1675-1893 |
DRI_Outcome |
denotes |
Taken all, we propose the present in silico vaccine constructs as a promising platform for the generation of broadly protective vaccines for species and genus-specific immunization of the natural hosts of the parasite. |
