    摘要: Provided is a P4 peptide, which contains functional epitopes of the PsaA protein of Streptococcus pneumoniae, and related methods and compositions. P4 peptide mimetics having a conformational structure identical or similar to the conformation of P4 (e.g., SEQ ID NO: 1 and SEQ ID NO:2) are provided. An antibody that specifically binds to the epitope defined by the disclosed peptides is provided. A P4-specific antibody is PsaA-specific since P4 defines an epitope specific for PsaA. Immunogenic compositions comprising the peptide of SEQ ID NO: 1 and a pharmaceutical carrier or the peptide of SEQ ID NO:2 and a pharmaceutical carrier are also provided. Methods of using the peptides and antibodies of the invention are provided.

    摘要: Provided is a P4 peptide, which contains functional epitopes of the PsaA protein of Streptococcus pneumoniae, and related methods and compositions. A peptide that comprises the amino acid sequence defined in SEQ ID NO:1 (an example of the P4 peptide) is provided. Also provided is a peptide comprising the amino acid sequence defined as VPSLFVDSSVDDRPMKTVSQDTNIPIYAQIFTDS (SEQ ID NO:2). P4 peptide mimetics having a conformational structure identical or similar to the conformation of P4 (e.g., SEQ ID NO: 1 and SEQ ID NO:2) are provided. An antibody that specifically binds to the epitope defined by the disclosed peptides is provided. For example, the antibody can specifically bind to a peptide comprising the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 and having the conformation defined by the peptide consisting of SEQ ID NO: 1. An antibody that specifically binds to a peptide comprising the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:2 and having the conformation defined by the peptide consisting of SEQ ID NO:2 is also provided. A P4-specific antibody is PsaA-specific since P4 defines an epitope specific for PsaA. A vaccine comprising the peptide of SEQ ID NO: 1 and a pharmaceutical carrier is provided. A vaccine comprising a peptide of SEQ ID NO:2 and a pharmaceutical carrier is also provided. Methods of using the peptides and antibodies of the invention are provided. Diagnostic kits comprising a P4 peptide is also provided.

    摘要: Protein markers of toxicity and efficacy for antilipemic drugs are determined. Methods and reagents are disclosed for determining whether a patient receiving an antilipemic drug, especially a statin or HMGCoA reductase inhibiting drug, is experiencing drug efficacy and/or toxicity. Individual susceptibility is also determined prior to treatment. Also, drug discovery of similar acting candidates and their likelihood of being toxic or effective is determined by analysis of all proteins in a sample simultaneously by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis.
