Epitope mapping of the d flagellar antigen of Salmonella muenchen.

PMCID: PMC258177  PMID: 1715328

Abstract

Contiguous exposed antibody-binding regions of the antigen d flagellin of Salmonella muenchen were identified by using octameric peptides synthesized on polyethylene pins. Identification was confirmed by the serological activity of immunoglobulins recovered from specified pin peptides. Peptides equivalent to four regions of the d flagellin reacted with three different sera tested.
