JPT's ability to produce highly complex peptide libraries coupled with its peptide array technology enables, for the first time, the discovery and profiling of B- and T-cell epitopes on a proteome-wide level. Max-Planck-Gesellschaft zur Forderung der Wissenchaften (Munich, Germany) has patented epitopes of the tau protein which are specifically occurring in a phosphorylated state in tau protein from Alzheimer paired helical filaments, to protein kinases which are responsible for the phosphorylation of the amino acids of the tau protein giving rise to said epitopes, and to antibodies specific for said epitopes. |
