Insight II software simulation of trimeric HA molecules on the surface of the virus. The yellow area indicates the candidate epitope that mainly consists of random coiled structures and turns and may contain a small portion of a β-sheet structure or α-helix structure. Most of the candidate epitopes are exposed on the surface. (A) Simulated conformation of H5 HA candidate epitopes 1. HA141~155 2. HA206~223 3. HA302~316 (B) Simulated conformation of H7 HA candidate epitopes. 1. HA165~181 2. HA182~196 3. HA255~269. (C) Simulated conformation of H9 HA candidate epitopes. 1. HA37~54 2. HA73~90 3. HA123~140.
