Identification of hepatitis a virus mimotopes by phage display, antigenicity and immunogenicity [PDF]
A phage-displayed peptide approach was used to identify ligands mimicking antigenic determinants of hepatitis A virus (HAV) for the first time. Bacteriophages displaying HAV mimotopes were isolated from a phage-display peptide library by affinity ...
