... The site at which binding occurs on the antibody or B-cell receptor is the paratope; the site bound on the antigen is the epitope. The variable region of the heavy chain is approximately 100 amino acids in length. Paratopes are thought to be much smaller, roughly one to two dozen amino acids, and ca ...
