ABSTRACT:
Peptide antigens derived from the dengue virus type-2 glycoprotein NS1 are provided. The peptide antigens are specifically immunoreactive with sera from individuals infected with the dengue virus. The antigens are useful as diagnostic tools in determining whether an individual has been or is infected with dengue virus, and for discriminating between infection with dengue virus and infection with related flaviviruses. The antigens are also useful in vaccine compositions for immunizing individuals against infection with the dengue virus.
