    Synthetic Polypeptides as Antigens is the first volume to give a comprehensive treatment under one cover of the various techniques used for synthesizing peptides by the solid phase approach, for coupling them to carrier molecules and analyzing their immunochemical activity by a variety of immunoassays. This book also describes methods for analyzing the antigenic structure of proteins and predicting the location of their antigenic sites. Recent advances in the detection of gene products with antipeptide antibodies, and the still controversial use of synthetic peptides as vaccines are also described. The book provides: - detailed descriptions of procedures - extensive bibliography - detailed analysis of the structural basis of antigenicity in proteins Synthetic Polypeptides as Antigens is intended for researchers and graduate students in molecular biology, protein structure, immunology, virology, and microbiology. Those using synthetic peptides as immunological probes will find this a most useful book, as will those wishing to overcome the difficulties of achieving antigenic mimicry by synthesis.

    Advances in Veterinary Science and Comparative Medicine, Volume 32: Immunodeficiency Disorders and Retroviruses provides an understanding of retrovirus morphogenesis, pathogenesis, and the processes of infection and transformation. This book discusses several issues in retrovirology and their importance in basic viral oncology, comparative medicine, veterinary medicine, and immunodeficiency syndromes. Organized into eight chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the replication cycle of retroviruses. This text then summarizes the factors responsible for the progression of the neoplastic condition through each stage in the ontogeny of lymphoid leukosis. Other chapters consider bovine leukemia virus, which is the etiological agent of a chronic lymphatic leukemia/lymphoma in sheep, cos, and goats. This book discusses as well the immunologic, virologic, and epidemiologic aspects of immunosuppressive disease caused by type D retroviruses. The final chapter deals with the involvement of DNA and RNA oncogenic viruses in animal and human neoplasias. This book is a valuable resource for scientists, oncologists, and clinicians.
