Peptide Sequences and Compositions

Abstract

The present specification discloses an immunogenic composition comprising polypeptide, wherein each of the polypeptides has no more than 100 amino acids, which polypeptides comprises one or more sequences having at least 60% homology with any of SEQ ID 1-4, or comprises two or more epitopes having 7 amino acids or more, each epitope having at least 60% homology with a sub-sequence of any of SEQ ID 1-4 that has the same length as the epitope, wherein, the polypeptide is immunogenic in a vertebrate expressing a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) allele, and wherein the polypeptide is not a complete HIV virus protein.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
