PADRE is a synthetic 13-amino acid peptide, sequence AKFVAAWTLKAAA, that acts as a T helper epitope with broad (pan-HLA-DR) binding to HLA-DR molecules. It is studied as a component for developing synthetic and recombinant vaccines, for example in constructs with beta-amyloid peptides in mouse models. It is supplied lyophilised, without additives, at a purity above 95% (HPLC, ESI-MS).
Key features
Binds broadly to HLA-DR molecules and acts as a T helper epitope.
Used as a helper epitope in the development of synthetic and recombinant vaccines.
Purity above 95% checked by HPLC and ESI-MS.
Soluble in water or water/methanol 1:1 for 1 mg/mL stock solutions.
Applications
- Development of synthetic and recombinant vaccines
- Enhancing CD4+ T helper responses
- Experimental vaccine constructs, e.g. with beta-amyloid
- T-cell epitope studies
