細粒棘球蚴所致囊型包蟲病（cystic echinococcosis，CE）是一種嚴重人畜共患寄生蟲病[1]。我國CE流行區(qū)主要集中在內(nèi)蒙古、新疆、青海、西藏、寧夏、四川、甘肅7個省份的牧區(qū)，給當?shù)厝松】怠⒔?jīng)濟發(fā)展和社會和諧穩(wěn)定帶來嚴重影響。尋找特異性強、敏感性高的候選抗原靶標分子是CE診斷和防治的當務(wù)之急。細粒棘球蚴抗原B（Echinococcus granulosus antigen B，EgAgB）是包囊囊液中含量多、免疫原性強、敏感性和特異性高的脂蛋白，為國內(nèi)外研究熱點[2-5]。EgAgB包括EgAgB8/1、EgAgB8/2、EgAgB8/3、EgAgB8/4、EgAgB8/5等5個約為8 kD的亞單位，各亞單位對不同類型包蟲病診斷的敏感性和特異性效能有明顯差異[6-7]。本課題組前期研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，5個亞單位中以EgAgB8/3在細粒棘球絳蟲成蟲階段的表達最為顯著[8-9]，提示其有望成為開發(fā)研制包蟲病防治疫苗和診斷試劑最有潛力的后備靶抗原。為進一步探討EgAgB8/3抗原結(jié)構(gòu)特點，本研究用生物信息學(xué)方法預(yù)測分析其抗原表位，以期為包蟲病診斷防治最佳候選抗原的選擇提供一些理論支撐。
