  • NY-ESO-1 peptide derivatives, and uses thereof
    Patent number: 6605711
    Abstract: The invention relates to variant peptides which bind to HLA molecules, leading to lysis of cells via cytolytic T cell lines. The variants are based upon NY-ESO-1 peptides. The peptides can be incorporated into immune tetramers, which are useful as T cell sorters.
