Applying the Concept of Peptide Uniqueness to Anti-Polio Vaccination by Darja Kanduc, Candida Fasano, Giovanni Capone, Antonella Pesce Delfino, Michele Calabrò, Lorenzo Polimeno

“…Sequence analyses produced a set of consensus epitopic peptides potentially able to generate specific anti-polio immune responses exempt from cross-reactivity with the human host. Conclusion. Peptide sequences unique to poliovirus proteins and conserved among polio strains might help formulate a specific and universal anti-polio vaccine able to react with multiple viral strains and exempt from the burden of possible cross-reactions with human proteins. …”
