In silico identification and wet lab validation of novel cryptic B cell epitopes in ZnT8 zinc transporter autoantigen.
Zinc transporter 8 (ZnT8) is a novel immunodominant autoantigen, associated with Type-1 diabetes. A non-synonymous polymorphism (R325W) in its gene is associated with Type-2 diabetes. In this study, we performed an in silico B cell epitope prediction foll..... Read More
