The EBV LMP2 419-427 peptide (TYGPVFMCL) is a well-defined MHC class I epitope used to stimulate and measure antigen-specific CD8+ T-cell responses in immune monitoring workflows-especially when working with HLA-A*24:02 (HLA-A24). This single peptide format is ideal for targeted readouts (e.g., epitope-specific reactivity), while still pairing well with broader screening approaches such as peptide pools.
The Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) Latent membrane protein 2 (LMP2) Peptide is a high quality epitope peptide for stimulation of antigen-specific T cells in T cell assays such as ELISPOT, ICS, cytotoxicity or proliferation assays. The Latent membrane protein 2 (LMP2) Peptide, H-TYGPVFMCL-OH (Uniprot: P13285 aa: 419-427) from JPT is produced under strict quality control and quality management.

Common use cases of EBV LMP-2 419-427
- Epitope-specific stimulation in ELISPOT / ICS
- Functional readouts in cytotoxicity and proliferation assays
- Immune monitoring in EBV-related research contexts (infection and oncology)
Key benefits
- HLA-A*24:02-restricted epitope: supports precise, allele-matched T-cell stimulation workflows
- Sequence-defined (TYGPVFMCL): helps standardize assay conditions across experiments
- Works as a standalone epitope reagent or alongside PepMix™ peptide pools and MHC multimer strategies for immune monitoring (where applicable)
Need help choosing the right format?
If you’re deciding between a single epitope peptide vs. an overlapping pool:
- Choose single epitope peptide (this product) when you want allele-restricted, epitope-specific stimulation/readouts (e.g., validating a known response, comparing donors, titrating concentration).
- Choose an overlapping LMP2 pool when you want broader coverage of LMP2 to map responses or avoid missing responses due to unknown epitopes.
Talk to a scientist: If you tell us your assay type (ELISPOT/ICS/killing), donor HLA, and readout, we can help you select the best peptide format and controls.
