The role of Aedes aegypti in inducing/aggravating IgE-mediated allergic airway disease : extensive computational studies for identification of allergenic proteins

Respiratory allergies have become a major public health concern and affect one-third of the world's population. Several factors like environmental changes, industrialization, and immunologic interactions are reported to contribute to allergic respiratory diseases. Immunological reactions because of mosquito bite (allergic proteins) have been reported to have a high contribution to IgE-mediated allergic airway disease but they are largely ignored. In this study, we aim to predict the potential allergens (proteins) from Aedes aegypti that might play a role in the reactions of IgE-mediated allergic airway diseases. The allergens are identified from an extensive literature search and the 3D structures were prepared using the SwissDock server. Computational studies were performed to identify the potential allergens that might be responsible for IgE-mediated allergies. Our docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation results suggest that ADE-3, an allergen from Aedes aegypti, has the highest docking score and is predicted to be responsible for IgE-mediated allergic reaction(s). Overall, this study highlights the importance of immunoinformatics, and the obtained information can be used for designing prophylactic peptide vaccine candidates and inhibitors for controlling IgE-mediated inflammations.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.
