    Notes: The induction of antibodies against peptides requires the presence of a T helper cell epitope. In the absence of an added T-cell epitope only 10% of the mice, or less depending on the strain, gave an antibody response to a series of peptides of the measles virus (MV) fusion (F) protein. After co-immunization with a non-covalently coupled T-cell epitope more than 60% of the peptides became immunogenic. Considerable differences became apparent when BALB/c mice were immunized with peptides in the presence of different T-cell epitopes. An immunodominant T-cell epitope of the MV-F protein was more efficient than a subdominant or a cryptic T-cell epitope in providing help to a non-linked B-cell epitope. There is both a ranking order of the amount of help which B-cell epitopes require and a ranking order for the help T-cell epitopes are able to provide. The capability of a T-cell epitope to provide help to a B-cell epitope correlated with its own immunogenicity, i.e. the intensity of the antibody response to the peptide representing the T-cell epitope. The data suggest that for each MHC class II allele there is an optimal T-cell epitope which can provide help to a maximal number of B-cell epitopes and that such a peptide can be identified by its ability to induce antibodies against itself. By using this strategy, the authors were able to induce antibodies which cross-reacted with the MV.

    Notes: Abstract Electrospray mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) is an established method for the qualitative analysis of synthetic peptide libraries and combinatorial mixtures or collections of small organic compounds. However, the calculation of the mass distribution of even small peptide mixtures is a time-consuming and error-proned task. Therefore, the computer program MS-Pep has been developed, which calculates the masses of expected peptides, byproducts and the mass distributions of peptide libraries.

    Notes: Abstract Starting from carboxy-linked amino acids on trityl functionalized polystyrene resin a highly efficient solid-phase synthesis of hydantoins via N, N′-ureas was elaborated. The polymer-bound hydantoins can be used as scaffolds for further combinatorial transformations, such as alkylation. Cleavage from the resins yielded the corresponding hydantoins in good yields and purities as shown by ESI-MS and HPLC.
