Abstract
We have explored various approaches to modify the immunrecognition of linear peptides representing sequential or continuous topographic B-cell or T-cell epitopes. For these studies, epitopes from herpes simplex virus (HSV) glycoprotein D (gD) and from mucin 1 and mucin 2 glycoproteins or T-cell epitopes from 16kDa and 38kDa proteins ofMycobacterium tuberculosis were selected. To increase antigenicity and immunogenicity we have prepared cyclic and chimaeric peptide variants as well as epitope peptides with altered flanking regions and epitope-carrier conjugates containing multiple epitope copies.
