    Snippet: B-cell epitope prediction is a highly challenging field due to the fact that the vast majority of antibodies raised against a specific protein interact with discontinuous fragments (van Regenmortel, 1996) . The prediction of continuous, or linear, epitopes, however, is a somewhat simpler problem, and may be still useful for synthetic vaccines or as diagnostic tools (Regenmortel and Muller, 1999) . Moreover, the determination of continuous epitope.....
    Document: B-cell epitope prediction is a highly challenging field due to the fact that the vast majority of antibodies raised against a specific protein interact with discontinuous fragments (van Regenmortel, 1996) . The prediction of continuous, or linear, epitopes, however, is a somewhat simpler problem, and may be still useful for synthetic vaccines or as diagnostic tools (Regenmortel and Muller, 1999) . Moreover, the determination of continuous epitopes can be integrated into determination of discontinuous epitopes, as these often contain linear stretches (Hopp, 1994) .
