Immunogenicity of peptide-vaccine candidates predicted by molecular dynamics simulations.
description:
This cyclic peptide was synthesized to mimic the crystallographically observed beta-hairpin conformation that region KDTNNNL adopts in the native PorA protein. The additional residues were chosen to generate a contra-turn of type II' beta-turn.
Bactericidal titers were tested as described in Hoogerhout et al, 1995, Infect. Immun. 63, 3473–3478 [PMID: 7543883].
