- In immunology,
epitope mapping is the
process of
experimentally identifying the
binding site, or
epitope, of an

- In immunology, a
linear epitope (also
sequential epitope) is an
epitope—a
binding site on an antigen—that is
recognized by
antibodies by its
linear sequence...
- Peptide-based
synthetic vaccines (
epitope vaccines) are
