Bioactivity | GAD65(247-266) epitope TFA is the T cell epitopes of islet antigens,binding to I-Ag7 (type I diabetes-associated molecule) competitively with poor affinity. GAD65 refers to Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase 65,involved in the conversion of glutamate to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)[1]. | ||||||
