Definition of epitope in English: epitopenoun ˈɛpɪtəʊpˈepəˌtōp Biochemistry The part of an antigen molecule to which an antibody attaches itself. Also called antigenic determinant Example sentencesExamples - The loci of the known epitopes of the antibodies used are shown diagrammatically in Fig.1.
- Even in the case of microbial antigens not found in vertebrates such as lipopolysaccharides, it should be noted that peptide epitopes can mimic bacterial carbohydrates and DNA.
- We chose to consider residue charge because of evidence that the pattern of residue charges is important in determining epitopes for antibodies.
- On cell-surface glycoproteins, the epitope structure of TF antigen is linked to either serines or threonines.
- In all the experiments on native titin, the molecule was attached to two beads, each labeled with an antibody to a different epitope.
Origin 1960s: from epi- 'upon' + Greek topos 'place'. Definition of epitope in US English: epitopenounˈepəˌtōp Biochemistry The part of an antigen molecule to which an antibody attaches itself.
