About this item
Stimulating T cells with EBV (LMP2A) peptide pool releases downstream cytokines and upregulates activation markers, enabling antigen-specific T cells to be detected or isolated for analysis. EBV (LMP2A) peptide pool is a lyophilized mixture of 27 peptides from latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV; strain GD1), and consists of 15-mer peptides with 11-amino-acid overlaps that cover amino acids 1 to 118 on LMP2A. LMP2A contributes to the survival of EBV-transformed B cells (Mancao and Hammerschmidt) and mediates partial escape of infected B cells from recognition by EBV-specific CD8+ T cells (Rancan et al). Viral peptide pools are useful for a broad range of applications, including vaccine development, immunological research, and diagnostic assay development.
