The invention provides novel immunological adjuvants and methods for identification of such adjuvants. The invention further provides methods and compositions for eliciting an immune response to an immunogen using the novel adjuvants. The adjuvants can be employed with any suitable immunogen, including proteins, peptides, lipids, and carbohydrates. The immunogen can be derived from a virus, a cancer, or a diseased cell. The elicited immune response can be cellular, humoral, or both.
