Abstract

According to certain embodiments, the invention relates to a method of producing antibodies employing an immunoconjugate produced by conjugating at least one membrane-anchoring compound with at least one partial sequence of a viral, bacterial, or protoral protein. The immunoconjugate has the advantage that it can be stored for a very long time even without cooling. According to certain embodiments, the invention relates to an immunoconjugate for the specific induction of cytotoxic T-lymphocytes which comprises a conjugate from at least one membrane anchor compound and a protein, containing at least one killer T-cell epitope, of a virus, a bacterium, a parasite or a tumor antigen, or at least one partial sequence containing at least one killer T-cell epitope of a viral, bacterial or parasite protein or of a tumor antigen.
