单词 | conformational epitope |
释义 | conformational epitopeconformational epitopeAdjacent amino acid strings at different points in a folded protein, making a complex site to which an antibody can bind. Conformational epitopes are less stable than LINEAR EPITOPES, a fact that explains why some allergies are outgrown in time. Allergies, such as peanut allergy, in which the antibody (IgE) binds to a linear epitope tend to persist. |
