Restrictive epitope peptide, nucleic acid molecule and application
By expressing chicken MHC I molecules in mammalian cell lines and screening for chicken MHC I molecule BF2*1901 restricted avian influenza virus CTL epitopes, the high cost and low efficiency of traditional methods were solved, and immunogenic peptides were screened out, which are suitable for avian influenza virus vaccine design and immune mechanism research.

AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are difficult to efficiently screen for chicken MHC I molecule BF2*1901 restricted avian influenza virus CTL epitopes. Traditional methods require a large number of haplotype chicken immune cells and are costly. They are also prone to misidentification or missed detection of weakly binding peptides that do not conform to the motif and ultrashort peptides of atypical length.
Using mammalian cells as the transfection target, a cell line expressing chicken MHC I molecules was constructed. MHC I-peptide complexes were prepared by viral infection, and 23 chicken MHC I molecule BF2*1901 restricted avian influenza virus CTL epitopes were screened by replacing chicken MHC I monoclonal antibodies with tag antibodies.
This method enables rapid, economical, and effective screening of CTL epitopes, reducing costs and identifying 21 newly identified CTL epitopes applicable to different chicken MHC I molecules and subtypes of avian influenza viruses, providing a scientific basis for vaccine design and immunization evaluation.
