Glycoproteins epitopes, antigenic

Antigens usually are macromolecules that contain distinct antigenic sites or epitopes , which can be recognized and interact with the various components of the immune system. They can exist as individual molecules composed of synthetic organic chemicals, proteins, lipoproteins, glycoproteins, RNA, DNA, polysaccharides—or they may be parts of cellular structures (bacteria or fungi) or viruses (Male et al., 1987 Harlow and Lane, 1988). [Pg.746]

CA 15-3, CA 549, and CA 27.29 assays detect a high molecular weight glycoprotein mucin expressed by the mammary epithelium, known as episialin. The circulating episialin antigen is a heterogeneous molecule. CA 15-3, CA 549, and CA 27.29 assays detect similar yet different epitopes on the episialin. The main differences are the antibodies used for detection. They are used as markers for breast carcinoma. [Pg.770]
