The invention provides a synthetic
peptide vaccine and particularly relates to polypeptide or a polypeptide
polymer thereof used for the synthetic
peptide vaccine for O type foot-and-mouth
disease, the vaccine containing the polypeptide or the polypeptide
polymer thereof and preparation methods of the polypeptide or the polypeptide
polymer thereof and the vaccine, wherein the polypeptide has the
amino acid sequence as indicated in SEQ ID No .2 .According to the synthetic
peptide vaccine and the preparation method thereof, candidate
peptide antigen is screened through a great number of animal tests,
foot and mouth disease virus antigen sites are optimized according to the
screening result,
T cell epitope and
B cell epitope are effectively combined, and the immune effect of the polypeptide
antigen is enhanced .The synthetic
peptide vaccine for O type foot-and-mouth
disease can effectively cope with
antigen variation of foot-and-mouth
disease virus,
biosecurity is good, large-scale synthesis can be conducted easily, and good application prospect is achieved.
