Short Abstract: The HPV31 is one of the most common types of high risk and incident in several different regions of the world. However, the available vaccines have low efficacy to it. The predicted epitopes is a key tool in the development of vaccines predicting functional epitopes for human immunization.

Short Abstract: In this work we present a whole genome sequence of Corynebacterium ulcerans strain 210932, an emergent pathogen that infect wild and domesticated animals and humans, causing diphtheria-like illness and other clinical pictures. The genomic information generated is useful for basic and wealth research as vaccinology, drug targets and epidemiology.

Short Abstract: In this work we use a multilayer network strategy to model a map of bioactive drugs, their targets, and other informative relationships.
We identified candidate drug targets, either for complete query species or for orphan compounds. Some of them were already validated and other are potentially new.

Short Abstract: Vaccine against ehrlichiosis would be important to disease control. Our group developed an immunoinformatics workflow. Here, predictions were made with NetCTL, NetMHC, NetMHCII, BepiPred, PSORTb, TMHMM and Sigcleave. Integration of results was made using a relational database. From 925 proteins, seven were selected and may induce protection against canine ehrlichiosis.

Short Abstract: Cassava bacterial blight produced by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam) is the most important bacterial disease of cassava. Here we want to propose a dynamic model of the Xam metabolism using genomic data to deepen inside of the pathogenic mechanism of interaction between plant and bacterium.

Short Abstract: Reverse Vaccinology is one of the most promising field using bioinformatics tools to epitope prediction for T and B cells in silico. In this work we propose a high-throughput screening of the L. infantum proteome to map potential vaccines targets that may be used against canine visceral leishmaniasis.

Genomic data mining for search of new targets for vaccine development: immunoinformatics and system biology

Daniela Resende, Centro de Pesquisas René Rachou, Brazil

Jeronimo Ruiz, Centro de Pesquisas René Rachou, Brazil
 
Short Abstract: Immunoinformatics aims selection vaccine/diagnostic targets. Disorded portions of proteins may have relation with immunogenic epitopes. Automated workflow used algorithms for epitope and disorder prediction in a relational scheme, and it was used in Leishmania infantum and Schistosoma mansoni. Experiments are being performed to confirm the immunogenicity of selected proteins.

Computational Prediction of MHC-class I Epitopes from L1 Protein of Human Papillomavirus type 16: Search for Broad Spectrum Response

Fernanda Prado, Universidade Federal de Sergipe, Brazil
Paloma Aparecida Santos Rocha, Universidade Federal de Sergipe, Brazil
Marcus Batista, Universidade Federal de Sergipe, Brazil
 
Short Abstract: The present study is intended to use robust computational epitope prediction tools to determine T-cell epitopes for L1 protein of HPV-16, which could serve to human immunization owing to the distribution and prevalence of HPV types around the world.

Short Abstract: HPV-31 is quite detected worldwide. And, current vaccines have low efficacy. Thus, it is important to develop new vaccine strategies and epitope prediction is a key part in this process. Moreover, early HPV proteins are important because they act during the progression of the lesion.
