A comprehensive computational investigation into the conserved virulent proteins of <i>Shigella</i> sp unveils potential siRNA candidates as a new therapeutic strategy against shigellosis
2021-03-10
Abstract excerpt
Shigella sp account for the second-leading cause of deaths due to diarrheal diseases among children of less than 5 years of age. Emergence of multi-drug resistant Shigella isolates and the lack of availability of Shigella vaccines have made the efforts in the development of new therapeutic strategies against shigellosis very pertinent. In our study we have analyzed a total of 241 conserved sequences from a 15 di...
