ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to the selection and preparation of synthetic peptides which stimulate helper T lymphocyte response to HIV in a wide range of human subjects. These multideterminant peptides are, therefore, useful for the production of vaccines against HIV infection and for diagnostic procedures to test for HIV seroconversion.
