Localisation of the main immunogenic region of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.
description:
The epitope sequence is from the reference cited: Juillerat et al. (1984) Eur J Biochem. 143: 309-314 [PMID: 6468398]. The epitope sequence is identical in acetylcholine receptor alpha subunit from Torpedo californica.
The rabbit anti-epitope antibody bound to the AChR alpha subunit and to papain generated 27 kDa and 36 kDa fragments of the subunit.
