A protein—or even just a piece of a protein ---> the amino acids or peptide sequences ---> triggers an immune response inside our bodies

"a protein—or even just a piece of a proteinthat triggers an immune response inside our bodies."

"the immune system responds is a relatively small number of amino acids or peptide.

A possible alternative approach to immunization would therefore be to identify the peptide sequences that trigger a protective immune response and to use completely synthetic versions of these as the vaccine substance"
