DescriptionThis peptide belongs to the acetylated cardiac alpha-myosin amino acid residues 614 to 643. Immunization with cardiac myosin induces T cell-mediated myocarditis in genetically predisposed mice and serves as a model for autoimmune heart disease. The nonacetylated variant of this dominant peptide corresponding to amino acids 614 to 643 fails to induce the disease. N-terminal acetylation significantly changes the pathogenicity of the peptides. This acetylated form of the peptide shows dominant pathogenicity and induces severe myocarditis with inflammatory lesions throughout the ventricular wall.
