A Simple Method for the Design and Development of Flavivirus NS1 Recombinant Proteins Using an In Silico Approach.

Even in countries that do not currently face a flavivirus epidemic, the spread of mosquito flaviviruses prize increased public threat, due to climate change, international travel, and other factors. Many of these countries do not have the resources (strain of the virus, clinical specimens, etc.) necessary for research that can help overcome Canine Recombinant Proteins the threat imposed by flaviviruses, and therefore, an alternative approach is needed. 

Using in silico approach to the global database, we aim to design and develop a recombinant flavivirus NS1 protein with consideration of antigenic variation. NS1 gene were analyzed in this study included a total of 6823 sequences, of the dengue virus (DENV), Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), West Nile virus (WNV), Zika virus (ZIKV), and yellow fever virus (YKV). 

We extracted and analyzed 316 DENV NS1 sequence type (ST), 59 ST JEV, WNV ST 75, 30 YFV ST and 43 ST ZIKV using a simple algorithm based on phylogenetic analysis. ST reclassified in accordance with the variation of a large MHC II epitope binding. 78 DENV types of epitope (EPT), 29 EpTs JEV, WNV EpTs 29, 12 EpTs YFV, and 5 EpTs ZIKV extracted in accordance with their major epitopes.

 Also, results showed that there EpTs frequency dominant in all flaviviruses. Fifteen ST selected and purified recombinant antigen for expression in Escherichia coli by sodium dodecyl sulfate extraction. Our research details a novel in silico approach to the development of diagnostic flavivirus, including a simple way to filter out those peptide regions critical

Nanostructured particles increases the recombinant protein specific antibodies against nodavirus NNV protein in a single coat.


nervous necrosis virus (NNV) reassortant strain RGNNV / SJNNV has emerged as a potential threat to the Mediterranean marine aquaculture industry, causing viral encephalopathy and retinopathy (VER) in Senegal sole (Solea senegalensis). In this study, a cheap and practical vaccine strategies using bacterial inclusion bodies are made of coat protein of virulent betanodavirus reassortant strain was made. 


Nanostructured recombinant protein Caprine Recombinant Protein  nanoparticles, VNNV-CNP, administered without adjuvant for two single youth group, one by intraperitoneal injection and the other by oral intubation. specific antibodies raised in vivo against NNV coat protein via both routes, with specific antibodies substantial expansion in the group injected 30 days post homologous mainspring. the level of expression of five genes associated with adaptive immunity, cd8a, CD4, IgM, IGT and arg2, also measured in the intestine, spleen and head kidney. 

The results showed CD4 and IgM were upregulated in kidney injected fish head, indicating activation of the adaptive systemic response, while intubated fish exhibited in the intestinal mucosal response
