EBV EBNA3B 416-424 (HLA-A*11:01; HLA-A*68:01) IVTDFSVIK
€ 105.00 *
Description
The EBV EBNA-3B 416–424 peptide (IVTDFSVIK), historically referenced as EBNA-4 416–424, is one of the most immunodominant and extensively characterized CD8+ T-cell targets in viral immunology. Derived from Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen 3B (EBNA-3B / EBNA-4; UniProt: P03203; epitope ID: 29466) of Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV / Human Herpesvirus 4), this nonamer sequence represents a major cytotoxic target during latent viral infection.
Featuring the amino acid sequence IVTDFSVIK, this peptide is predominantly presented via the HLA-A3 supertype (specifically HLA-A*11:01 and HLA-A*68:01), making it a high-value tool for broad population-wide immune profiling.
Key Features & Benefits
- Broad HLA-A Supertype Restriction: Dual-restricted by HLA-A*11:01 and HLA-A*68:01 alleles, providing high population coverage across diverse demographic cohorts.
- Extensively Validated Benchmark: Backed by a large evidence base of 55 peer-reviewed publications, 105 functional T-cell assays, and 21 MHC ligand binding studies.
- Core Control Component: Integrated as an essential reference constituent in peptides&elephants' EBV Control Peptide Pool, CEF (Classic) Peptide Pool, and CEF (Advanced) Peptide Pool (>95% HPLC purity).
Applications
- EBV Latent Phase Immunomonitoring: Measures functional CD8+ T-cell memory (IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, CD107a) directed against latent nuclear antigens 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*68:01 peptide-MHC complexes to isolate and enumerate antigen-specific CD8+ T cells.
