    Abstract: In recent years, a large number of proteins of different organisms have been discovered but due to high experimental cost and uncertain time boundary, yet it is not possible to find out all of the functionalities of those proteins. With the recent advent of huge protein-protein interactions, it becomes an opportunity to computationally predict a pr... Show More

    Abstract: In this study, the capsid proteins of four major serotypes of Foot and Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV) were assessed as the vaccine candidates. Different protein sequences regarding FMDV capsid of O, A, Asia 1 and C type were identified from NCBI Genome Database and UniprotKB. Phylogenetic tree of the four serotypes was developed using ClustalW software... Show More
