Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9739029A2] The subject invention relates to a peptide sequence corresponding to amino acid residues (117 to 128) of hepatitis B surface antigen and uses thereof. In particular, the peptide is an antigenic epitope and may therefore be used, for example, as a diagnostic reagent or in the production of a vaccine. Furthermore, the present invention also relates to a C(K/R)TC motif present within the peptide as well as to other peptides containing this motif.
