Abstract
The spatial structure of the envelope protein of African swine fever (ASF) virus is modeled; its topology relative to the cell membrane is calculated; the B- and T-cell epitopes are predicted for this protein; and their immunogenecity, allergenicity, and toxicity are estimated. The variability of protein amino acids and the conservativity of the found epitopes are studied. It is shown that a new peptide vaccine against ASF can be developed based on the found epitopes.
期刊介绍：
Crystallography Reports is a journal that publishes original articles short communications, and reviews on various aspects of crystallography: diffraction and scattering of X-rays, electrons, and neutrons, determination of crystal structure of inorganic and organic substances, including proteins and other biological substances; UV-VIS and IR spectroscopy; growth, imperfect structure and physical properties of crystals; thin films, liquid crystals, nanomaterials, partially disordered systems, and the methods of studies.
