Excerpt
Intuitive understanding of hypothetical genes’s signal peptide, transmembrane helix (TH) domain and LipoP box of any pathogenic microorganisms is a prerequisite for the rational development of drugs and vaccine candidates. A protein harboring these sequences may serve as receptor and conveyer for various biostimulations generated during host-pathogen interaction. Identification and annotation of these proteins may help in designing of novel drug or developing new vaccine candidates to control CT infections. …
