A computerized method for predicting the locations of protein antigenic determinants is presented, which requires only the amino acid sequence of a protein and no other information. This procedure has been used to predict the major antigenic determinant of the hepatitis B surface antigen, and antigenic sites on a series of test proteins of known antigenic structure (Hopp and Wood, 1981). The method is suitable for use in smaller personal computers and is written in the BASIC language to make it available to investigators with limited computer experience and/or resources. A means of locating multiple antigenic sites on a homologous series of proteins is demonstrated using the influenza hemagglutinin as an example.
