Human trial proves ricin vaccine safe, induces neutralizing antibodies; further tests planned
Scientists have completed the first human clinical trial of a recombinant vaccine for the deadly toxin ricin ?a potential bioterror threat ?and the results indicate the vaccine is safe and effective in eliciting ricin-neutralizing antibodies, the UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers report. The nearly year-long pilot study involved three groups of five volunteers each. Individuals in...Human and Mouse RAR Neutralizing Peptide from ABR-Affinity BioReagents
Description:PEP-005 is a synthetic peptide whose sequence is from the C-terminal end of the mouse retinoic acid receptor beta (RAR*). The 21 amino acid sequence extends from amino acids 429 to 448 of RAR*. The sequence of PEP-005 is (amino to carboxy terminus): C - P - S - V - S - P - S - S - V - E - N - S - G - V - S - Q - S - P - L - L - Q (The N-terminal cysteine has been added to facilitate conjugatio...Rat rab 3D Neutralizing Peptide from ABR-Affinity BioReagents
