Yellow Fever Virus NS1 (129-144) Peptide KNGSFIIDGKSRKEC is a peptide from the nonstructural protein 1 (NS1) of yellow fever virus (YFV). The sequence is directly present in the public NS1 protein sequence and has been represented in systematic YFV peptide/epitope mapping datasets.
Yellow Fever Virus NS1
NS1 is a flavivirus nonstructural glycoprotein involved in viral replication and host interactions. Because NS1 is immunogenic and accessible to antibody- and T-cell-focused studies, overlapping NS1 peptide libraries have been used to map human and animal immune responses following infection or vaccination.
NS1 Residues 129-144
Sequence: KNGSFIIDGKSRKEC
The sequence is located in the central portion of the YFV NS1 protein. Systematic peptide mapping studies reported overlapping peptides spanning this region, and public epitope resources contain multiple T-cell epitopes within or overlapping the same NS1 segment.
Potential Research Applications
- YFV T-cell epitope mapping
- Peptide pool design
- MHC-binding studies
- ELISpot and cytokine assays
- Vaccine immunology research
- NS1 antibody or peptide-binding studies
