Peptides capable of binding to MHC molecules, cells presenting such peptides, and pharmaceutical compositions comprising such peptides and/or cells
View Patent ↗A method of identifying peptides originating from a particular cell type and being capable of binding to MHC molecules of a particular haplotype is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining a cell type expressing a soluble and secreted form of the MHC molecules of the particular haplotype; collecting the soluble and secreted form of the MHC molecules of the particular haplotype; and analyzing peptides bound to the soluble and secreted form of the MHC molecules of the particular haplotype, thereby identifying the peptides originating from the particular cell type and being capable of binding to MHC molecules of the particular haplotype.
1. A peptide of amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 13.
2. A composition comprising, as an active ingredient, the peptide of claim 1 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
3. The composition of claim 2 , wherein said composition further comprises, as an active ingredient, an antigen presenting cells, said antigen presenting cell presenting the peptide of claim 1 .
