Bcipep: A database of B-cell epitopes

Welcome to the official repository for Bcipep, a comprehensive and manually curated database of experimentally determined linear B-cell epitopes of varying immunogenicity. This resource is designed to support researchers in peptide-based vaccine design, disease diagnosis, allergy research, and computational immunology.

It consolidates scattered immunological data into a centralized, searchable platform, enabling systematic exploration of epitope sequences, immunogenicity, pathogen coverage, antibody information, and neutralization potential. The database integrates information from: Literature (PubMed, ScienceDirect) Public repositories (SWISS-PROT, PDB, GenBank, MHCBN) HIV Molecular Immunology compendium
