1In this column, B indicates that the site lies in the B-cell antigenic regions [21]. G means that it is a potential glycosylation site. T indicates that the site lies in the T-cell antigenic regions [19]. We start numbering from the amino acids MNPN. A means that the site is associated with drug-resistance [7].
