Development of an ancestral DC and TLR4-inducing multi-epitope peptide vaccine against the spike protein of SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 using the advanced immunoinformatics approaches
The oldest human coronavirus that started pandemics is severe acute respiratory syndrome virus (SARS-CoV). While SARS-CoV was eradicated, its new version, SARS-CoV2, caused the global pandemic of COVID-19. Evidence highlights the harmful events orchestrated by these viruses are mediated by Spike (S)P protein. Experimental epitopes of the S protein which were overlapping and ancestral between SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 were obtained from the immune epitopes database (IEDB). The epitopes were then assembled in combination with a 50 S ribosomal protein L7/L12 adjuvant, a Mycobacterium tuberculosis-derived element and mediator of dendritic cells (DCs) and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). The immunogenic sequence was modeled by the GalaxyWeb server. After the improvement and validation of the protein structure, the physico-chemical properties and immune simulation were performed. To investigate the interaction with TLR3/4, Molecular Dynamics Simulation (MDS) was used. By merging the 17 B- and T-lymphocyte (HTL/CTL) epitopes, the vaccine sequence was created. Also, the Ramachandran plot presented that most of the residues were located in the most favorable and allowed areas. Moreover, SnapGene was successful in cloning the DNA sequence linked to our vaccine in the intended plasmid. A sequence was inserted between the XhoI and SacI position of the pET-28a (+) vector, and simulating the agarose gel revealed the existence of the inserted gene in the cloned plasmid with SARS vaccine (SARSV) construct, which has a 6565 bp in length overall. In terms of cytokines/IgG response, immunological simulation revealed a strong immune response. The stabilized vaccine showed strong interactions with TLR3/4, according to Molecular Dynamics Simulation (MDS) analysis. The present ancestral vaccine targets common sequences which seem to be valuable targets even for the new variant SARS-CoV-2.
期刊介绍:
Open access, online only, peer-reviewed international journal in the Life Sciences, established in 2014 Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports (BB Reports) publishes original research in all aspects of Biochemistry, Biophysics and related areas like Molecular and Cell Biology. BB Reports welcomes solid though more preliminary, descriptive and small scale results if they have the potential to stimulate and/or contribute to future research, leading to new insights or hypothesis. Primary criteria for acceptance is that the work is original, scientifically and technically sound and provides valuable knowledge to life sciences research. We strongly believe all results deserve to be published and documented for the advancement of science. BB Reports specifically appreciates receiving reports on: Negative results, Replication studies, Reanalysis of previous datasets.
