ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to immunogenic peptides from vespid antigen 5. These immunogenic peptides can be used in immunotherapy for vespid venom allergic individuals. The present invention is thus directed to T cell epitopes of vespid antigen 5 that can anergize T cell responses in sensitive individuals.
