Study of the Binding Pattern of HLA Class I Alleles of Indian Frequency and cTAP Binding Peptide for Chikungunya Vaccine Development.

ABSTRACT: Chikungunya is a mosquito-borne disease, caused by the member of the Togaviridae family belongs to the genus alphavirus, making it a major threat in all developing countries as well as some developed countries. The mosquito acts as a vector for the disease and carries the CHIK-Virus. To date there is no direct treatment available and that demands the development of more effective vaccines. In this study author employed Immune Epitope Database and Analysis Resource, a machine learning-based algorithm principally working on the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) algorithm, also known as (IEDB-ANN) for the prediction and analysis of Epitopes. A total of 173 epitopes were identified on the basis of IC50 values, among them 40 epitopes were found, sharing part with the linear B-cell epitopes and exposed to the cTAP1protein, and out of 40, 6 epitopes were noticed to show interactions with the cTAP with their binding energy ranging from?-?3.61 to?-?1.22 kcal/mol. The six epitopes identified were exposed to the HLA class I alleles and from this all revealed interaction with the HLA alleles and minimum binding energy that ranges from?-?4.12 to?-?5.88 kcal/mol. Besides, two T cell epitopes i.e. 145KVFTGVYPE153 and 395STVPVAPPR403 were found most promiscuous candidates. These promiscuous epitopes-HLA complexes were further analyzed by the molecular dynamics simulation to check the stability of the complex. Results obtained from this study suggest that the identified epitopes i.e. and 395 STVPVAPPR 403 , are likely to be capable of passing through the lumen of ER to bind withthe HLA class I allele and provide new insights and potential application in the designing and development of peptide-based vaccine candidate for the treatment of chikungunya.

Project description:Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) diversity has a tremendous impact on shaping the transplantation practices, transfusion-associated graft versus host disease prevention strategies, and host–pathogen interactions. Here, we conducted a retrospective study of HLA class I and class II homozygosity at allelic and haplotype levels in unrelated individuals genotyped from 2012 to 2016 in a tertiary hospital in the capital of Saudi Arabia. Among 5,000 individuals, 2,773 individuals meet inclusion criteria and were retrospectively analyzed for HLA-A, -B, -C–DRB1, and -DQB1 homozygosity at allelic and haplotype levels. HLA molecular typing was performed using a commercial reverse sequence-specific oligonucleotide (rSSO) kit. We were able to identify 15 HLA-A, 20 HLA-B, 11 HLA-C, 13 HLA-DRB1, and five HLA-DQB1 homozygous alleles demonstrating a very low genetic diversity in the Saudi population. The highest homozygosity in HLA class I was found in locus C followed by A and B (20.3% > 16.1% > 15.5%; p < 0.001) where the most homozygote alleles were A*02 (9.2%), B*51 and B*50 (5.7% and 3.7%), and C*07, C*06, and C*15 (7.2%, 5.48%, and 3.3%) and in HLA class II, the highest homozygosity was found in locus DQB1 compared to DRB1 (31.71% > 19.2%; p < 0.001), with the most common homozygote alleles being DRB1*07 and DRB1*04 (5.33% and 4.2%) and DQB1*02, DQB1*06, and DQB1*03 (13.55%, 7.92%, and 7.64%). The frequency of finding an individual with one homozygote allele was (24.6%), two homozygote alleles (13.5%), three homozygote alleles (4.7%), four homozygote alleles (3.4%), and five alleles were (4.8%). The most frequent homozygote haplotypes are A*23∼C*06∼B*50∼DRB1*07∼DQB1*02 and A*02∼C*06∼B*50∼DRB1*07∼DQB1*02. This study shows low diversity of both class I and II alleles and haplotypes in the Saudi population, which would have a significant impact on shaping the transplantation practices, transfusion-associated graft versus host disease prevention strategies, and host–pathogen interactions.
