Large-scale analysis of B-cell epitopes of envelope: Implications for Zika vaccine and immunotherapeutic development
2019-06-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Cases of the re-emergence of Zika virus in 2015 were associated with severe neurologic complications, including Gillien-Barre syndrome in adults and congenital Zika syndrome in newborns. The major structural determinant of immunity to the Zika virus is the E protein. Although B-cell epitopes of Zika E protein were recently identified, data regarding epitope variations among Zika strains in pr...
