Identification of an epitope of SARS-coronavirus nucleocapsid protein
The nucleocapsid (N) protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus (SARS-CoV) is a major virion structural protein. In this study, two epitopes (N1 and N2) of the N protein of SARS-CoV were predicte...

The kinetics of IL-4 and IFN-γ gene expression in Mice after Trichosansin immunization
Trichosanthin (TCS) is a potent allergen to mice. According to our previous experiments, it could bring out the IgE response to ovabumin (OVA) if TCS was given one day before OVA immunization, while OVA alone ...

Prediction of antigenic determinants of trichosanthin by molecular modeling
The antigenic determinants of trichosanthin were predicted by molecular modeling. First, the three-dimensional structure model of the antigen-binding fragment of anti-trichosanthin immunoglobulin E was built o...
