Abstract:The Puumala orthohantavirus is present in the body of the bank vole (Myodes glareolus). Humans infected with this virus may develop hemorrhagic fever accompanying renal syndrome. In addition, the infection may further lead to the failure of an immune system completely. The present study aimed to propose a possible vaccine by employing bioinformatics techniques to identify B and T‐cell antigens. The best multi‐epitope of potential immunogenicity was generated by combining epitopes. Additionally, the linkers EAA… Show more
