In silico design of a multi-epitope peptide construct as a potential vaccine candidate for Influenza A based on neuraminidase protein.
Designing an effective vaccine against different subtypes of Influenza A virus is a critical issue in the field of medical biotechnology. At the current study, a novel potential multi-epitope vaccine candidate based on the neuraminidase proteins for seven subtypes of Influenza virus was designed, using the in silico approach. Potential linear B-cell and T-cell binding epitopes from each neuraminidase protein (N1, N2, N3, N4, N6, N7, N8) were predicted by in silico tools of epitope prediction. The selected epitopes were joined by three different linkers, and physicochemical properties, toxicity, and allergenecity were investigated. The final multi-epitope construct was modeled using GalaxyWEB server, and the molecular interactions with immune receptors were investigated and the immune response simulation assay was performed. A multi-epitope construct with GPGPGPG linker with the lowest allergenicity and highest stability was selected. The molecular docking assay indicated the interactions with immune system receptors, including HLA1, HLA2, and TLR-3. Immune response simulation detected both humoral and cellular response, including the elevated count of B-cells, T-cell, and Nk-cells.
