Designing a multi-epitopes subunit vaccine against human herpes virus 6A based on molecular dynamics and immune stimulation.

Human Herpesvirus 6A (HHV-6A) is a prevalent virus associated with various clinical manifestations, including neurological disorders, autoimmune diseases, and promotes tumor cell growth. HHV-6A is an enveloped, double-stranded DNA virus with a genome of approximately 160-170 kb containing a hundred open-reading frames. An immunoinformatics approach was applied to predict high immunogenic and non-allergenic CTL, HTL, and B cell epitopes and design a multi-epitope subunit vaccine based on HHV-6A glycoprotein B (gB), glycoprotein H (gH), and glycoprotein Q (gQ).
