| Bioactivity | Peptide M is a synthetic amino acid (18 amino acids in length which correspond to the amino acid positions 303-322 of bovine S-antigen: DTNLASSTIIKEGIDKTV), is capable of inducing experimental autoimmune uveitis in monkeys and Hartley guinea pigs as well as Lewis rats[1]. | ||||||
| Invitro | peptide M is immunogenic in man and provide additional support to the hypothesis that the amino acid sequence which corresponds to peptide M might be involved in uveitic conditions in man[1]. | ||||||
