ARRAYS AND METHODS FOR IDENTIFYING BINDING SITES ON A PROTEIN

A method of identifying of amino-acid residues on a target protein that form a binding site of a molecule of interest. Such method relies on selection of relevant patches of solvent-accessible residues and testing of an array of mutated proteins for changes of binding properties. Such method is usef...

Zusammenfassung:A method of identifying of amino-acid residues on a target protein that form a binding site of a molecule of interest. Such method relies on selection of relevant patches of solvent-accessible residues and testing of an array of mutated proteins for changes of binding properties. Such method is useful for determining binding sites (epitopes) of antibodies, ligands and related molecules.
