Comparison of Antigenic Regions Identified on IgG1Fc Using Bioinformatics vs Pepscan Analysis

Epitope mapping allowed the location of antigenic determinants on a protein macromolecule to be identified. In particular, pepscan techniques that utilize a series of overlapping peptides, help detect key amino acid residues that are important in antibody recognition and binding. In a previous study...
