| name: |
Epitope mapping of B-cell determinants on the 15-kilodalton lipoprotein of Treponema pallidum (Tpp15) with synthetic peptides.
|
| description: |
After an initial assessment of reactivity with overlapping 8-mers, further definition of the epitope was attempted with shorter peptides, and this 7-mer was the optimal peptide. Alanine replacement of each residue showed that residues T2, T5, V6 and S7 were essential for antibody binding.
