Antigenic epitopes are the part (contact points) of an antigen involved in specific interaction
with the antigen-binding site (the paratope) of an antibody or a T-cell receptor. Detailed …

The book provides a comprehensive view of the impact and promise of phage display in
drug discovery and biotechnology. Building on the success of its previous edition, the book …

A peptide-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for discrimination between
serological responses to equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) and 4 (EHV-4) was developed …

Equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) causes serious disease in horses throughout the world,
despite the frequent use of vaccines. CTLs are thought to be critical for protection from …

A random peptide library of heptamers displayed on the surface of M13 bacteriophage was
used to identify specific epitopes of antibodies in pooled sera of swine naturally infected by …

There is a forthcoming link between chronic alcohol consumption and proteins covalently
modified by ethanol metabolites and their antibodies. To identify sensitive probes of protein …

A major immunogenic region of equine herpesvirus (EHV)-1 glycoprotein E (gE) was
identified. Firstly, the various fragments of EHV-1 gE were expressed as fusion proteins with …

The use of polyclonal antibodies to screen random peptide phage display libraries often
results in the recognition of a large number of peptides that mimic linear epitopes on various …

Abstract Equine Herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) is an important ubiquitous enzootic equine
pathogen, causing significant economic losses to the horse industry. Despite extensive …

Patients with vitiligo produce specific autoantibodies that can be detected in their sera.
These antibodies are believed to play a role in the pathogenesis of this disease. A random …
