Title:
HIV PEPTIDES, ANTIGENS, VACCINE COMPOSITIONS, IMMUNOASSAY KITS, AND METHOD OF DETECTING ANTIBODIES INDUCED BY HIV
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2014043468
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide novel HIV antigens.
The present invention comprises novel and modified peptides capable of inducing an HIV-1 specific immune response without antagonizing the cytotoxic T-cell activity in order to achieve an effective prophylactic and therapeutic vaccine against HIV. The peptides are based on conserved regions of HIV gag p24 proteins. Described herein are: antigens in a free- or carrier-bound form comprising at least one of the peptides; vaccine compositions containing at least one of the antigens; immunoassay kits; and a method of detecting antibodies induced by HIV or HIV specific peptides using such antigens.
