Computational identification of significant immunogenic epitopes of the putative outer membrane proteins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Abstract Novel vaccines are required to effectively combat the epidemic spread of tuberculosis. Using in silico approaches, this study focuses on prediction of potential B cell and T cell binding immunogenic epitopes for 30 putative outer membrane proteins of Mtb. Among these, certain immunodominant...
