Core-genome guided novel therapeutic targets identification and chimeric vaccine designing against Rickettsia rickettsii by Fizza Arshad, Asifa Sarfraz, Muhammad Shehroz, Umar Nishan, Asia Perveen, Riaz Ullah, Mohamed A. Ibrahim, Mohibullah Shah

“…The core genome of R. rickettsii was investigated, resulting in the identification of seven essential, human non-homologous proteins as potential drug targets, as well as four antigenic, non-allergenic proteins suitable for vaccine development. Using conserved antigenic peptides, two chimeric vaccine constructs were developed and assessed using molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, principal component analysis, MM-GBSA binding free energy, and dynamic cross-correlation matrix studies. …”
