Talk:Mimotope

Contribution that does not really fit "When antibodies do not follow the protein background, the epitope's characterisation by a subsequence of the target protein is not possible. A synthetic oligopeptide mimicking the binding, or a series of these, then substitutes the original protein to work towards a molecular model of the binding." Anybody feeling stimulated to improve?

Will be Updating this Site

In the next few weeks I will be adding information and reorganizing this Wikipedia page. Here is a list of several sources (reviews) I intend to use:
