Guideline for creating Immunotation of Mtb
From DrugPedia: A Wikipedia for Drug discovery
This page provide the instruction to the users participating in Immunotation of M.tb projects. Please read the instruction carefully given in this page.
Purpose
The functional annotation of protein is most important task for future prediction of drug/vaccine candidate. Thus CRDD of OSDD lunched a project named as Immunotation of M.tb means functional annotation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis protein from immunological point of view like prediction of B-cell, T-cell epitopes etc.
Instruction
1. User must follow the link to create a account on Drugpedia Create account.
2. Login on Drugedia using the user name and password that have been provided to you by click on the login/create account on top right side on ht edrugpedia page or by the foolowing link Login.
3. Now you have succesfully login on Drugpedia. In the search box on left side of page you will search the page that you want to create. If this page is already existing you click on the title and can add more information by clicking edit buttion on the top of page. But if this page is not exist then search result will give no link and your search title will appear in red color, where you can click on create page link to create a new page by the title that you have searched.
.
4. Now you can add information by click on edit buttion about this page title.
Example
Below is an example of added information about a particular record entitled "Immunotation of Rv2753C(dihydrodipicolinate synthase)".
1. Create the page using Immunotation of Rv2753c (dihydrodipicolinate synthase).
2. click on edit button to add information.
3. Add general information about the Rv2753c
4. User have to search the biohealth database to find the information about the Rv2753c like Gene Symbol,Name,Locus Name,Entrez Gene ID and save this information in immunebox.
5. Click on detail link and get information about the PDB id , subcellular localization and essential gene information.
6. Go to Genbank by the link provided in biohealthbase and get Swissprot id from this page, also include it in immunebox of your record.
7. Go to Human Homologue and perform blastp against SwissProt database and select organism as 'Homo sapiens', get the following information for top five hits}
8. Do literature search for its allergencity and then go to Algpred (Allergen prediction server. Here paste the protein sequence in the box and select the sequence format respectively. Then chose 'hybrid approach' for prediction.
9. Go to AntigenDB database, paste the Locus ID eg. 'Rv2753c' or gene name eg 'dapA' or SwissProtID eg. P63945 in the keyword Search box and select 'Mycobacterium tuberculosis' in the 'Antigen Source' option and get information like B cell T cell Epitopes and also got the respective literature (From the NCBI related articles find out latest information regarding epitope and immunogenecity if not compiled in these databases). If epitope found, search in the Antibacterial peptide database (AntiBP2) for more antibacterial activity of the peptide.
10. Go to IEDB database , paste Locus name in the 'keyword search' box at the top right of the page, if get some positive results browse the database and get all the B and MHC Class-I and MHC Class-II T cell epitopes and respective literature.
