Epitope
A portion of an antigen recognized by an antibody binding site. For protein antigens the epitope is typically 5-8 amino acids. Gene fusions to epitopes can be used as a tag to recognize specific proteins.

Epitope: As related to protein antigens, B-cell epitopes consist of the amino acid residues of a protein molecule which interact directly through noncovalent bonds with the amino acid residues of a particular antibody molecule (complementarity ...

Each B-lymphocyte produces antibodies that are specific not to an antigen, but to an epitope of that antigen. An epitope is a small piece of the antigen to which the antibody binds.

So some of these amino acids would be located on the surface of the protein, directly accessible to the environment. Those amino acid residues would be the most that would constitute usually antigenic epitopes.
