48-mer synthetic peptide analogue of the hepatitis B virus ""a"" determinant induces an anti-HBs antibody response after a single injection.
|
| description: |
A ten-fold higher concentration of antiserum was required to give an equivalent level of antibody binding to the peptide to that observed by using the native protein. The peptide is 48 amino acids long, and encompasses the entire HBV 'a' determinant. This region includes immunodominant B cell epitopes between amino acids 139-145 and a known T-helper epitope around amino acids 164-167.
