Workflow of the proposed advanced RV pipeline for multi-epitope vaccine design. After retrieving the H5N1 strain sequence from the NCBI database and performing Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA), we predict CTL, Helper T-lymphocyte, and B cell epitopes using specific bioinformatic tools to evaluate their antigenicity and allergenicity levels and select the best epitopes. Finally, UISS-FLU is run to predict the efficacy of the multi-epitope vaccine formulation
