Epitome - Database of Structurally inferred Antigenic Epitopes in Proteins

An antigenic interaction of a protein is a non covalent interaction between a residue and one of the 6 Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs) of an antibody. Each entry in the database describes an interaction of a residue on the antigenic protein and a residue in a CDR. For more information about the database and the ways to search it click here.

To search the epitomes database you may enter search parameters in the fields below

PDB ID:
Antigen chain: (PDB Chain ID)
Antigen residue type: (One Letter Code)
secondary structure:
solvent accessibility: (ANGSTROM*2)
Antigen position: (in PDB)

Antibody chain type: (heavy/light)
Antibody Chain: (PDB chain id)
Antibody residue: (One Letter Code)

Antibody position: (in PDB)
CDR number: (1,2,3)

You can also run a similarity search; this will run a blast search on the database and will give you the set of most similiar proteins. You may then use the result to search the database. Paste or type your sequence:
