An immuno-dominant sequential epitope recognized by mouse anti-recombinant bovine growth hormone antisera.
The sequential epitopes on bovine growth hormone (bGH) recognised by five polyclonal mouse antisera have been identified by scanning with multiple pin-bound peptides. Four main epitopes were identified at residues 29-40, 101-110, 139-152 and 181-191. Of these, only epitope 139-152 is recognised by all five mouse antisera indicating that, for the mouse, this may represent an immuno-dominant region of the bGH molecule.
