Product Name | MAPS, Core, 8-Branch |
Purity | HPLC>95% |
Description | Multiple antigen peptides (MAPs) are artificially branched peptides with Lys residues as the core of the scaffold, supporting the formation of branches with different or identical peptide sequences. It is a method for producing high-titer peptide antibodies and synthetic peptide vaccines. This system utilizes the α- and ε amino functional groups of lysine to form a main chain of polypeptide chains. Depending on the number of lysine layers (2, 4, 8, etc.), different numbers of peptide branches can be synthesized. This technique can successfully produce high-titer antibodies. MAPs have a high molar ratio of peptide antigen to core molecule and do not require carrier protein to induce antibody response. |
