    摘要: This in invention relates to methods for the nucleic acid amplification of multiple variants (strains) of any pathogen present in a sample, and preferably in a sample from a pathogen infected individual. In preferred embodiments, the pathogen is a retrovirus, such as HIV. The amplified pathogen nucleic acid can be used to identify the pathogen variants present in a sample, to quantitate the pathogen present in a sample, and as a nucleic acid vaccine, or in the preparation of antigen presenting cell vaccines. Nucleic acids produced by the methods of the invention or the proteins encoded thereby can be used to transfect/load antigen presenting cells. The loaded antigen presenting cells can then be used as a vaccine for the treatment of pathogen infection. In another embodiment, nucleic acids produced by the methods of the invention can be used directly as nucleic acid vaccines without prior loading into antigen presenting cells.

    摘要: The present invention provides methods for identifying antigens recognized by immune effector cells. In one embodiment, the methods combine identifying amino acid sequence motifs of such antigens and the DNA sequences that potentially encode the identified amino acid motifs and the DNA sequences which are aberrantly expressed in the cells. By comparison of these sequences, novel antigens that are recognized by immune effector cells are identified.

    摘要: The present invention provides immunoglobulins specific for p53BP2 ligand polypeptides. In a preferred embodiment, the present invention provides a variant of an immunoglobulin variable domain, wherein the immunoglobulin variable domain contains (A) at least one CDR region and (B) framework regions flanking the CDR, and the variant includes: (a) the CDR region having added or substituted therein at least one binding sequence, and (b) the flaking framework regions, wherein the binding sequence is heterologous to the CDR and the binding sequence is derived from a human ligand having immunogenic properties relevant to human lung cancer. In a preferred embodiment, the binding sequence is an antigenic sequence. In a further preferred embodiment, the variant contains a variable domain lacking an intrachain disulfide bond.

    摘要: The present invention provides compositions comprising altered peptide ligands that elicit immune responses in a subject to a native peptide. This invention also provides methods to raise T cell populations as well as a substantially purified population of said T cells. Altered peptide ligands find application in a wide variety of immunomodulatory protocols, including methods to induce or increase an immune response, as well as in methods to suppress or reduce an undesirable immune response, to a corresponding natural epitope.
