Compounds having reduced immunogenicity and a method of reducing the immunogenicity of compounds

摘要

Reduced-immunogenic fusion compounds are disclosed. The fusion compounds of the invention comprise immunogenic compounds linked to auto-antigenic sequences which render the compound less immunogenic. In addition, a method of reducing the immunogenicity of an immunogenic compound is disclosed. The method comprises linking an auto-antigenic sequence to an otherwise immunogenic compound. Recombinant nucleotide sequences encoding auto-antigenic sequences are also disclosed.
