Identification of potential molecular mimicry in pathogen-host interactions

2023-06-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Pathogens have evolved sophisticated strategies to manipulate host signaling pathways, including the phenomenon of molecular mimicry, where pathogen-derived biomolecules imitate host biomolecules. In this study, we used a sequence-based bioinformatics pipeline to identify potential molecular mimicry candidates between humans and 32 pathogenic species—bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and helminths—of g...
