Description
This 15-mer peptide of defined sequence competes with MBP (85-99), the immunodominant epitope of myelin basic protein (MBP), a major candidate autoantigen in multiple sclerosis (MS), for binding to human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR2. The peptide also inhibits IL-2 secretion by MBP (85-99) specific T-cell clones and induces the production of Th2 cytokines by splenocytes. Furthermore, it could be shown that the peptide is able to suppress experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in several m

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.
