Identification and validation of 174 COVID-19 vaccine candidate epitopes reveals low performance of common epitope prediction tools
Abstract The outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV) virus has highlighted the need for fast and efficacious vaccine development. Stimulation of a proper immune response that leads to protection is highly dependent on presentation of epitopes to circulating T-cells via the HLA complex. SARS-CoV-2 is a la...
