Would a Denatured Antigen Be Expected to Have the Same

question 21

Multiple Choice

Would a denatured antigen be expected to have the same epitopes as its native (non-denatured) counterpart? Why?

• A) Yes-epitopes are just a sequence of amino acids in a row, so they do not change regardless of 3D shape of the protein molecule they lie within.
• B) No-ALL epitopes are dependent on being in the proper original 3D conformation in the protein they arise within. Denaturing them would destroy them by destroying that conformation.
• C) Yes AND No-SOME epitopes are dependent on 3D conformation (conformational epitopes), while some simply depend on the primary order of amino acids (linear epitopes). So, really, it depends on the particular epitope.
• D) Yes-all proteins must be broken down into individual epitopes for presentation to B and T cells on MHC molecules, so each antigen protein MUST be denatured to yield ANY epitopes.
