The core cysteines, (C909) of islet antigen-2 and (C945) of islet antigen-2beta, are crucial to autoantibody binding in type 1 diabetes.

| description: |
The epitope was derived from the author provided GenBank identifier L18983 (GI:499630).
Mutations E836K abolished binding of the Mab to IA-2 and mutation W799A caused a 78% reduction in binding. These residues were therefore considered to play a critical role in binding.
