TABLE 3.

Conservation of epitope sequences in different murine Plasmodium parasites^a

MHC specificity	Epitope name	Sequence	Sequence conservation in:
			P. berghei	P. yoelli	P. chabaudi
H-2Db	Pb1	SQLLNAKYL	×	×	×
H-2Kb	Pb2	IITDFENL	×	×	IINDFENL
H-2Kb	F4	EIYIFTNI	×	×	×

^aThe sequences of the selected epitopes were compared across different murine parasites to see if these epitopes are conserved. The PlasmoDB database was used for the comparison. The cognate sequence of parasites that have different epitope sequences from P. berghei is indicated.
