ISOLATED PEPTIDES AND USES THEREOF

摘要

The present invention provides isolated preproinsulin-derived peptides of 8 or 9 amino acids, comprising the amino acid sequence WGPDPAA (SEQ ID NO: 1), isolated Class I peptide-HLA complexes presenting said peptides and isolated molecules having binding affinity for said peptides and/or said peptide-HLA complexes. Such compositions are useful in the treatment of Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).
