Abstract

The present invention relates generally to a method for identifying molecules that bind the R7.1 epitope of LFA-1 or bind LFA-1 such that the R7.1 epitope is modified. The present invention further relates to a method for determining occupancy of the LFA-1 receptor by molecules that bind to the R7.1 epitope or bind LFA-1 such that the R7.1 epitope is modified after administration to a subject. The present invention further relates to molecules useful in the methods of the invention.
