From: Pangenome and immuno-proteomics analysis of Acinetobacter baumannii strains revealed the core peptide vaccine targets

Fig. 8

Pepitope depicted surface topology of predicted potential antigenic epitopes. Gray secondary structure of proteins were predicted by using Swiss model and red highlighted structures illustrate the surface topology of 9-mer T-cell epitopes on respective proteins. Surface exposure of epitopes is a requisite for a candidate to be recognized by MHC molecules and be strongly immunogenic. All the predicted vaccine targets fulfill the antigenicity, transmembrane helices and topology criteria and can be exploited further for in vivo testing
