Design of multi-epitope-based therapeutic vaccine candidates from HBc and HBx proteins of hepatitis B virus using reverse vaccinology and immunoinformatics approaches.

Design of multi-epitope-based therapeutic vaccine candidates from HBc and HBx proteins of hepatitis B virus using reverse vaccinology and immunoinformatics approaches.

The major problem in cases of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is the failure of the patient's immune response to eliminate the covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) minichromosome of hepatitis B virus (HBV). Epigenetic regulation involving the HBV core protein (HBc) and HBV X protein (HBx) influenc...
