Abstract:Identifying antibody epitopes on membrane proteins can help differentiate antibody binding mechanisms, identify immunodominant structures, distinguish and classify antibodies, and identify cancer state-specific antigens, providing valuable information for therapeutic and diagnostic applications. However, membrane proteins represent challenging targets for epitope mapping studies using conventional methodologies such as X-ray crystallography or peptide scanning. We have developed a technology, ‘Shotgun Mutagene… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
