Abstract
Assay methods for determining whether a peptide is likely to be immunogenic are based on a computer modeling of binding to a Class II MHC DR1 receptor. This is confirmed by competitive inhibition binding assays. The peptides are useful for eliciting an immune response for vaccination or the production of antibodies or T-cells.
