A Computational Assay to Design an Epitope-Based Peptide Vaccine Against Chikungunya Virus

2012-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Aim: Chikungunya virus, an arthropod-borne alphavirus, belongs to the Togavirus family. Despite severe epidemic outbreaks on several occasions, not much progress has been made with regard to epitope-based drug design for chikungunya virus. In this study we performed a proteome-wide search to look for a conserved region among the available viral proteins, one which has the capacity to trigger a significant immune r...
