The invention relates to the field of molecular recognition or detection of discontinuous or conformational binding sites or epitopes corresponding to a binding molecule, in particular, in relation to protein-protein, protein-nucleic acid, nucleic acid-nucleic acid or biomolecule-ligand interactions. The invention provides a synthetic molecular library allowing testing for, identification, characterization or detection of a discontinuous binding site capable of interacting with a binding molecule, the library having been provided with a plurality of test entities, each test entity comprising at least one first segment spotted next to a second segment, each segment having the capacity of being a potential single part of a discontinuous binding site.

Identification of protein binding sites

The invention provides means and methods for producing compounds suitable for testing for the presence and/or identification of an immunogenic compound and/or a binding compound of interest. Immunogenic compounds and compositions are also herewith provided, as well as peptidomimetics of members of the cystine-knot family.
