how to find immunogenic peptides in a protein? Help! - (Sep/19/2007 )
Hello experts,
I am planning to raise antibodies against peptides for a given protein. What are the best ways to find out the most immunogenic regions of the protein, so that I could give those peptides for raising antibodies?
are there any good softwares??
thanks.
freshly into immunology!

the peptide to raise antibodies should be as unique as possible to gain high specificity; I do not know if it is reliable to forecast immunogeneity of a peptide; several several rabbits (or others) should be boostered to find a good Ab...
