A novel approach to design chimeric multi epitope vaccine against Leishmania exploiting infected host cell proteome

Leishmaniasis is a major infectious disease having high mortality which could be attributed to lack of a suitable vaccine candidate. We propose a novel approach to design multiepitope vaccine to leishmaniasis exploiting specific membrane proteome from infected macrophage from host. The MHC-I, MHC-II and BC epitopes predicted for unique proteins from the infected macrophages and
