Two of them showed good antigenicity by Dot-ELISA. They would be candidate peptides of synthetic anti-schistosomal vaccine.展开更多

All of them showed antigenicity with anti-schistosomajaponicum immunoglobulin polyclonal antibody, anti-Sj-lgG PcAb by Dot-ELISA. Three of themshowed good antigenicity. They would serve as candidates of synthetic anti-schistosomal vaccine.展开更多

It is very difficult to analyze some gene expression products, such as isopentenyl transferase (ipt), in transgenic investigation because they are trace in organisms. A convenient method is described to determine trace content gene expression product which is hard to purify. The method includes predicting and synthesizing the antigenic peptide according to the cDNA sequence, coupling the synthetic antigenic peptide with carrier protein, raising specific antibodies against the synthetic antigen, and detecting the gene expression product by ELISA and Western blot.展开更多

Driven by ATP hydrolysis, TAP translocates antigenic peptides from the cytosol into the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) lumen where the antigenic peptides are loaded onto the HLA class I molecules. Recently, numerous studies show that TAP is closely related with various diseases such as viral infections, autoimmune diseases, and different malignancies. In consideration of important roles of TAP in human adaptive immunity, this review summarizes the recent advances in structure-function relationships of crucial domains and transport mechanism systematically. The challenging problems and potential methods are also pointed out for in-depth researches.展开更多
