In a previous blog post (How to screen SARS-CoV-2 peptides to facilitate T cell research) MBL International described how the immune system samples all of the pathogenic proteins by looking at the small fragments of each protein and determining whether
Screening for COVID-19 T-Cell Peptides and Immune Monitoring with MHC Tetramers In A Single Assay
COVID-19 infected cells can be recognized by T-cells only after SARS-CoV-2 peptides are processed and presented in the context of self MHCs. Identifying these peptides have essential utilities: Immune monitoring: Using peptide-MHC tetramers to assess vaccine-induced immunity Designing potent vaccines
Do You Really Know About Peptides?
Peptides are the organic molecule made up 2 to 40 amino acids, structurally same as protein but smaller. The bonds present in peptides are termed as a peptide bond (1). The bonds are formed between amino group (-NH2) of one amino acids and the
