Antibody/Biologics R&D Services
Epitope Mapping Platform

Antigen epitopes are the basis of protein antigenicity. Identifying protein antigen epitopes is of great significance for disease diagnosis and prognosis, site-directed modification of protein molecules, the design of non-toxic artificial vaccines, and biopharmaceuticals. Structural analysis of the antigen-antibody complex and the identification of antigen epitopes are of significant importance for improving antibody affinity, enhancing antibody stability, antibody humanization, the design of novel antibodies, and antibody patent protection. This is especially crucial in the field of antibody AI design, where antigen epitope analysis is paramount. In order to meet the needs of different customers and projects, Viva Biotech can also provide methods of antigen-antibody crystallization, hydrogen-deuterium exchange (HDX-MS), and Cryo-EM to analyze antigen epitopes.
