The designed multi-epitope vaccine was analyzed for its physicochemical, structural, and immunological characteristics, and it was found to be antigenic, soluble, stable, nonallergenic, and have a high affinity to its target receptor. The immune simulation studies were carried out on the C-ImmSim showing increased production of cellular and humoral responses indicating that the constructed vaccine proved effective and able to provoke humoral and cell-mediated response immune responses. In silico study could be a breakthrough in designing effective vaccines to eradicate B. pseudomallei globally.
