Overview
The LLO (91-99) peptide from Listeria monocytogenes is a crucial component in understanding the mechanisms behind this pathogenic bacterium’s ability to invade host cells. This specific peptide, composed of amino acids 91 to 99 of Listeriolysin O (LLO), plays a vital role in enabling Listeria to escape from vacuoles within host cells and access the cytoplasm during infection. Beyond its biological significance, this peptide is also being explored as a promising vaccine candidate that stimulates cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses in vivo. This peptide is essential for researchers and labs focused on infectious disease, immunology, and vaccine development.
