“…Another commonly used strategy for epitope mapping of antibody responses is peptide microarrays, which typically include overlapping 15- to 20-mer peptides that span the immunogen of interest. 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 One specific study showed that a peptide microarray signature could be used to predict survival in mice following influenza challenge. 81 The major drawback of this approach is that it mainly identifies antibodies that target linear epitopes, and therefore it is not well suited to profile binding of conformational mAbs.…”
