Multi-mer peptides derived from hepatitis C virus envelope proteins for diagnostic use and vaccination purposes

   
   

Multimer peptides (e.g. 30- to 45-mer peptides) derived from hepatitis C virus envelope proteins reacting with the majority of anti-HCV antibodies present in patient sera are described. The usage of the latter peptides to diagnose, and to vaccinate against, an infection with hepatitis C virus is also disclosed.

Los peptides de Multimer (e.g. 30- a los peptides 45-mer) derivaron de virus de la hepatitis C que las proteínas del sobre que reaccionan con la mayoría de anticuerpos de anti-HCV presentes en sueros pacientes se describen. El uso de los últimos peptides a diagnosticar, y a vacunar contra, una infección con el virus de la hepatitis C también se divulga.
