ABSTRACT:
A rapid mutational analysis method for mapping protein epitopes is disclosed. This method has been used to identify the binding sites for 16 anti-CD2 and anti-CD4 monoclonal antibodies. The powerful, rapid, and simple method of the present invention allows isolation of a very large number of mutants, and is applicable to any intracellular or surface protein for which a cDNA and monoclonal antibodies are available. The present method is especially useful in ligand binding site studies for the design of new ligands and drugs.
