Table 4.

Peptide coverage of neutralizing epitopes.

protein	baseline	number of peptides selected	percentage (%) of protein covered	number of potentially neutralizing peptides selected	coverage of known neutralizing epitopes
gp110	5.72%	12	19.49%	2	2/3 = 66%
gp350	12.35%	20	35.17%	5	4/4 = 100%

Table 4 gives the number of selected peptides (and percentage of entire protein covered by these) in combination with the percentage of residues belonging to neutralizing epitopes and coverage of known neutralizing epitopes as an indicator of selection effectiveness for gp110 and gp350. A definition of the baseline is given in Table 3.
