| Abstract:
|
Infectious Bursal Disease Virus (IBDV) causes Gumboro disease, the virus is widely prevalent in Iraq especially vvIBDV strains which are refractory to vaccines. In this study epitope vaccine for cellular immunity were designed using vaccinomics approach. Many MCH I epitopes were obtained, only three were satisfy the requirements: 9- SQYQGGVTI-17, 45- LVLGATIYL-53, 77- NLMPFNIVI-85, tow MHC II epitopes were obtained: 145- VATGSVVTVAGVSNF-159, 206- EYTDFREYFMEVADL-220. MHC I epitopes were docked with available chicken molecules obtained from pdb database, most of them were docked with good binding affinity and RMSD value of zero using Autodock vina. F MHC II only fist epitope was docked with available B-L allele (6kvm), the second was unable to dock, might be due to their secondary structure which was mainly as a-helix.
