Press Release Body: January 2, 2008 - San Jose, CA
This week AnaSpec, one of the world's largest providers of custom and catalog peptides, introduced ten (10) new catalog peptides and one new unusual amino acid.
OVA (257-264); amide- Cat# 62572-5 This octameric peptide is amino acids 257 to 264 amidated fragment of ovalbumin (OVA); a class I (Kb)-restricted peptide epitope of OVA; presented by the class I MHC molecule; H-2Kb. Sequence: SIINFEKL-NH2
OVA (257-264); amide- Cat# 62572-1 This octameric peptide is amino acids 257 to 264 amidated fragment of ovalbumin (OVA); a class I (Kb)-restricted peptide epitope of OVA; presented by the class I MHC molecule; H-2Kb. Sequence: SIINFEKL-NH2
OVA (323-339); amide- Cat# 62571-5 This peptide is amino acids 323 to 339 amidated fragment of ovalbumin (OVA); the H-2b-restricted OVA class II epitope. This peptide is recognized by many T cells because it contains multiple T cell epitopes. This OVA fragment contains a nested set of CD4+ T cell epitopes. OVA 323 to 339 can be presented by I-Ad in at least three binding registers. The residues 327 to 333 are critical for peptide binding to I-Ad Sequence: ISQAVHAAHAEINEAGR-NH2
OVA (323-339); amide- Cat# 62571-1 This peptide is amino acids 323 to 339 amidated fragment of ovalbumin (OVA); the H-2b-restricted OVA class II epitope. This peptide is recognized by many T cells because it contains multiple T cell epitopes. This OVA fragment contains a nested set of CD4+ T cell epitopes. OVA 323 to 339 can be presented by I-Ad in at least three binding registers. The residues 327 to 333 are critical for peptide binding to I-Ad Sequence: ISQAVHAAHAEINEAGR-NH2
HEL (46-61)- Cat# 60504-1 This peptide is amino acids 46 to 61 fragment of the hen egg lysozyme (HEL). Lysozyme is anti-bacterial enzyme found in high concentration in the egg white. HEL was used in in MHC related studies; and tested as a part of anti-microbial vaccines. Sequence: NTDGSTDYGILQINSR
Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Nucleoprotein (52-59); VSV-8- Cat# 60785 This octapeptide is amino acids 52 to 59 fragment of the the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) nucleoprotein. VSV-8 is derived from the VSV nucleoprotein that is expressed in the cytosol of the infected cells. CTL response against VSV in H-2Kb mice is directed against this single VSV-8 immunodominant peptide. This 8 peptide forms complex with murine MHC class I molecule H-2Kb; which is similar to human HLA class I. This peptide was used in numerous MHC-binding studies and T-cell assays. Sequence: RGYVYQGL
LEAP-1; Hepcidin; human- Cat# 61432 This 25 amino acid residues Liver-Expressed Antimicobial Peptide 1 (LEAP-1) is also known as hepcidin. LEAP-1 is a liver-specific peptide; but may be detected in the heart and brain at a lesser amount. Sequence: DTHFPICIFCCGCCHRSKCGMCCKT (Disulfide bridges: 7-23; 10-22; 11-19; 13-14)
RNase S Complex Peptide- Cat# 62416 This peptide is a dead-end modified peptide from Ribonuclease S complex. Sequence: Ac-KETAAAKFERQHMDSSTSA-NH2
Fmoc-Lys(4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitro-benzyloxycarbonyl)-OH- Cat# 62574-500/ Cat# 62574-1000 Light-sensitive Compatible with standard Fmoc protocols Nvoc group removed by photo-cleavage
