Description
AADvac 1 is a peptide-based immunogen derived from the tau protein sequence 294-305(KDNIKHVPGGGS). This peptide encompasses the structural determinant 299-304 (HVPGGG), which is identified as a regulatory domain essential for pathological tau-tau interaction and oligomerization. The peptide is conjugated via an N-terminal cysteine residue to the carrier protein keyhole limpet haemocyanin (KLH) to form the immunogen Tau Peptide (294-305)-KLH.
The immunogen is designed to target a specific, immunologically distinct structural determinant on mis-disordered tau protein. This determinant is revealed by monoclonal antibody DC8E8 and represents a region critical for tau misfolding. The construct aims to elicit a humoral immune response against this particular epitope, with generated antibodies demonstrating the ability to discriminate between pathological and physiological tau forms.

About TFA salt
Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.
Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.
Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.
In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
