Title:
HLA CLASS I AND II BINDING PEPTIDES AND THEIR USES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003040165
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention provides the means and methods for selecting immunogenic peptides and the immunogenic peptide compositions capable of specifically binding glycoproteins encoded by HLA alleles and inducing T cell activation in T cells restricted by the allele. The peptides are useful to elicit an immune response against a desired antigen.
