Method of analysis of the peptide sequences immunogenic containing an feature of a protein foreign to the body of a host organism, in view of the production of vaccines

摘要

Method for analyzing peptide sequences carrying an epitope characteristic of an antigenic protein to the organism of a host. Said method comprises the detection of those tetrapeptidic sequences contained in the antigenic protein which have no counterpart in a data bank gathering information relative to the amino acid sequences of the proteins of the ''somatic self'' of the host. The synthesis of the peptidic sequences is carried out and their capacity to induce in vivo antibodies active against all of the protein is tested.
