Mpox and Vaccinia Virus Peptide Tools for Immune Response Monitoring
Published on 04/09/2024
With the recent outbreak and spread of Mpox (Monkeypox) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, questions about its severity and potential spread among humans have risen. Currently, the smallpox vaccine JYNNEOS is made available for immunization. Meanwhile, the success of developing a Mpox-specific vaccine remains to be seen. Understanding the immune response, whether from natural infection or vaccination, is crucial in assessing cross-immunity and controlling the spread of this virus.
To support your research of potential cross immunity and monitor T cell activity, we offer a range peptide tools designed for precise immune monitoring.

PepMix Peptide Pools
Our Pan Select PepMix™ Peptide Pools are meticulously developed to cover selected immune-dominant epitopes of a whole viral proteome, eliciting a strong virus-specific immune response. We currently offer our PepMix™ Pan-Poxviridae Select to study immune-dominant regions of Mpox, Vaccinia and Variola virus.
Moreover, we have added many PepMix™ Peptide Pools to our catalog covering Vaccinia virus immunogenic protein regions. These viral antigens share >96% sequence homology with their Mpox counterparts, and may be useful for your T cell assays. We provide a table on said protein homologues here.
Take a look at our Poxviridae PepMix™ Peptide Pools:
- Vaccinia virus (MVA093L)
- Vaccinia virus (MVA105L)
- Vaccinia virus (MVA074R)
- Vaccinia virus (MVA018L)
- Vaccinia virus (MVA121L)
- Vaccinia virus (L3L)
Single Antigen Peptides
JPT also offers single antigen peptides covering short Vaccinia sequences.
