  • Controlling distribution of epitopes in polypeptide sequences
    Publication number: 20040236514
    Abstract: The present invention describes a novel method for the design of polypeptides with controlled distribution of immunogentic epitopes. The method allows for the controlled elimination or introductionof epitopes in consideration of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule binding motifs.
