Description |
|
|
|
| Conformational epitope ID |
Unique identification of the epitope used in CED database. |
| Constitution and location |
Residues that constitute the epitope and their locations. |
| Epitope immunoproperty |
Immunological property of the epitope. For example, any epitope will be considered as neutralizing if the activity of its source antigen is blocked when binding to its corresponding antibody. |
| Corresponding antibody |
Antibody that recognizes and binds this conformational epitope. |
| Experimental method |
Experiment techniques used to identify this epitope, e.g. NMR. |
| Source antigen |
The name of the antigen on which the conformational epitope exists. |
| Sequence of source antigen |
Sequence ID of the source antigen in primary sequence databases such as SwissProt and GenBank; hyperlinked. |
| Structure of source antigen |
PDB ID of the source antigen; hyperlinked |
| Structure of Ag-Ab complex |
PDB ID of the source antigen-antibody complex; hyperlinked. |
| Chemoproperty of source antigen |
Chemical property of source antigen. If the source antigen is an enzyme, it is hyperlinked to KEGG enzyme. |
| Publication reference |
PubMed ID of article that report this epitope; hyperlinked. |
| Comments |
Miscellaneous information of the epitope. It is often about the location difference between the reference and the sequence database. |
