Conformational modification enhances myasthenogenicity in synthetic peptide of acetylcholine receptor alpha-subunit.
description:
Immunization of rats with the epitope elicited antibodies to intact acetylcholine receptor (AChR). Sera also blocked the binding of AChR to bungarotoxin. When the epitope was administered as a conjugate peptide (107-116-NPGG-190-195) reactivity to the corresponding epitope was significantly greater.
