Description

The EBV EBNA-3B 399–408 peptide (AVFDRKSDAK), historically also known as EBNA-4 399–408, is one of the most thoroughly validated CD8+ T-cell targets derived from Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen 3B (EBNA-3B / EBNA-4; UniProt: P03203; epitope ID: 5316) of Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV / Human Herpesvirus 4). 

Expressed during latent phase III infection, EBNA-3B triggers potent cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) responses. Primary presentation occurs via HLA-A*11:01, though functional literature also confirms presentation via HLA-A*03:01, providing high population coverage for human immunomonitoring assays.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Dual HLA-A Supertype Recognition: Primarily restricted by HLA-A*11:01 and cross-validated for presentation on HLA-A*03:01, enabling broad applicability across diverse demographic cohorts.
  • Exceptionally Benchmark-Validated: Supported by an extensive evidence base of 41 peer-reviewed publications, 80 functional T-cell assays, and 13 MHC ligand binding studies.
  • Core Control Component: Integrated as a key reference constituent in peptides&elephants' EBV Control Peptide Pool and CEF (Advanced) Peptide Pool (>95% HPLC purity).

Applications

  • EBV Latent Phase Immunomonitoring: Quantifies functional cytotoxic CD8+ T-cell memory (IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, CD107a) directed against latent viral targets in human PBMCs.
  • Recall Controls & Assay Standardization: Serves as a gold-standard positive control in ELISpot, Fluorospot, and Intracellular Cytokine Staining (ICS) assays.
  • MHC Multimer & Tetramer Staining: Ideal reference ligand for generating HLA-A*11:01 and HLA-A*03:01 peptide-MHC complexes to isolate and enumerate antigen-specific CD8+ T cells.
