Figure 6

Peptides recognized by Guinea pig sera localized on the 3D structure. Panel A shows the monomer structure file of the related H3N2 HA glycoprotein of A/X-31 (H3N2) colorized to identify the locations of the major epitopes A (green), B (red), C (pink), D (yellow), and E (orange). Panel B shows the location of HA peptides that were recognized by negative control guinea pig sera: peptides 81, 141, and 327 (peptides colorized in cyan). Panel C shows peptides recognized by infected Guinea pigs: peptides 9, 141, 327 and 453 (peptides colorized in shades of cyan). Panel D shows peptides recognized by sera from immunized Guinea pig sera: peptides 45, 81, 135, 141, 165, 327 and 483 (peptides colorized in cyan). The structure was drawn from 1HGG.pbd [11] using PyMOL [30].
