ABSTRACT
Gomase VS, Chikhale NJ., In
silico prediction of antigenic epitope of coat protein from soybean dwarf virus,
Onl J Bioinform., 1 (19):41-46, 2018. Soybean dwarf virus (SbDV) cell infection produces structural and nonstructural
proteins in plants. A coat protein is the major protein of the virion involved in viral attachment, membrane fusion and host
entry. Antigenic epitopes on this protein protect against virus infection and
virus-neutralizing antibodies may be sufficient to impart immunity. The
findings of this report suggest that epitopes RAPRVQLMAVPTVTS;
SDGILKAYHEYKITSILLQFIT, 20-34; 93-114 of coat protein could be sufficient to
induce an immune response. Peptides from sbDV protein
that produce virus-neutralizing epitope(s) may therefore induce sbDV neutralizing antibodies.
KEY-WORDS-
Soybean dwarf virus, coat Protein, antigenic epitope, immune response.
