The amino acid composition and spatial distribution of different types of epitopes was analyzed. The results showed that some linear epitopes were part of the conformational epitopes. IgE and IgG-binding epitopes shared some common sequences. At the same time, we identified a new linear IgE-binding epitope in β-lactoglobulin. The epitopes we obtained are candidate biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of milk allergy, and can be used for guiding the development of hypoallergenic dairy products.
