Fig 3. Sliding window technique.

The first ten amino acids of the template sequence formed the first set of oligopeptides. Then after a jump of 2 amino acids plus 10 amino acids were selected forming another set of oligopeptides. Following this logic, 16 oligopeptide sequences were selected. To complete the oligopeptide catalog 4 sequences composed of 12 amino acids with random sliding windows were included, completing the 20 sequences of oligopeptides that were synthesized on the membrane in duplicate.
