产品描述

The linear peptide B8R 20-27, with the amino acid sequence TSYKFESV (epitope ID 66504), is a well-established H2-Kb-restricted epitope conserved among various Vaccinia virus strains. [1] It is part of the: Soluble interferon gamma receptor OPG193 (UniProt:P24770) from Vaccinia virus IFN-gamma receptor (UniProt:Q66793) from Ectromelia mousepox virus IFN-gamma receptor-like protein (UniProt:G0XTP5) from Cowpox virus The Vaccinia virus was the live vaccine used to eradicate smallpox. It belongs to the orthopoxvirus family and provides protection against a range of orthopoxviruses. Currently, the most concerning of these is the monkeypox virus, but human cowpox infections are also being reported regularly in Europe. [1] The B8R 20-27 peptide, TSYKFESV, is also contained in recombinant and non-recombinant Modified Vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA). [1] The Modified Vaccinia virus Ankara has greatly reduced virulence and can no longer replicate in most mammalian cells. [2] It is often used as a vaccine vector, due to its cost-effectiveness, safety, and high immunogenicity. Recombinant MVA vaccines can generate robust humoral and cellular immune responses against various pathogens. In vaccine development, the B8R 20-27 peptide is used as a positive control to demonstrate that a lack of response is not due to immunization failure. The vaccinia virus B8R gene encodes a homolog of the secreted IFN-γ receptor. By binding to IFN-γ, B8R neutralizes its antiviral activity and is therefore involved in virus evasion of host interferon responses.
