SARS-CoV-2 is spreading globally at a rapid pace. To contain its spread and prevent further fatalities, the development of a vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 is an urgent prerequisite. Thus, in this article, by utilizing the in-silico approach, a vaccine candidate for SARS-CoV-2 has been proposed. Moreover, the effectiveness and safety measures of our proposed epitopic vaccine candidate have been evaluated by in-silico tools and servers (AllerTOP and AllergenFP servers). We observed that the vaccine candidate has no allergenicity and successfully combined with Toll-like receptor (TLR) protein to elicit an inflammatory immune response. Stable, functional mobility of the vaccine-TLR protein binding interface was confirmed by the Normal Mode Analysis. The in-silico cloning model demonstrated the efficacy of the construct vaccine along with the identified epitopes against SARS-CoV-2. Taken together, our proposed in-silico vaccine candidate has potent efficacy against COVID-19 infection, and successive research work might validate its effectiveness in in vitro and in vivo models. |
