Immunodominant Epitopes Identified for Designing Peptide-Based Vaccine Against SARS-CoV-2

By Merav Burstein / June 14, 2020 / Comments Off on Immunodominant Epitopes Identified for Designing Peptide-Based Vaccine Against SARS-CoV-2

There are currently no licensed vaccines available for COVID-19.  While several antiviral drugs have been tested, none has proved to be completely effective against the disease. In a study just published in the journal MDPI Vaccines, researchers from Bar-Ilan University have identified a set of potential immunodominant epitopes from the SARS-CoV-2 proteome.  These epitopes are capable…
