Designing a vaccine against a pathogen has been the toughest challenge to fight against any infectious diseases. To overcome this problem, use of artificial neural network with immuno-informatics is emerging as a front runner solution. For a successful designing of a potent vaccine, prediction of T-cell/B-cell epitopes, antigen processing and presentation analysis, antigenic potential analysis of epitopes, usages of linkers, population coverage, codon optimization, allergenicity assessment, toxicity prediction of construct, and finally protein-peptide docking for stability of vaccine are important steps. To achieve this, several bioinformatics software, tools and online web servers have been developed for each application, which have their own advantages and limitations. Scientists must evaluate these parameters and should take the decision to apply more suitable and precise servers for each analysis and prediction based on their accuracy, suitability, and robustness.
