I learned that there is a lower limit to the size of any potential epitope - is that what this is about-?

... for your reply. this is not what the thing is about. I need something like a positive control - a known antibody known to bind a very simple epitope (best would be a loop - hence a nonlinear peptide or protein-fragment) which can be used in in-vitro experiments. Cheers, Chris

you should be able to to raise antibodies only against your epitope (understand - use only that epitope for imunization), or raise polyclonal antibodies and lok, which one will best bind your epitope

Hi, I couldn´t rally figure out where to post this question. Does anybody know an antibody that recognizes a very simple epitope - like a single loop? For example a peptide-antibody or an antibody binding to a single "site" on a protein. Most of the antibodies recognize a ...
