Figure 1. Numerous unique self and viral peptides are presented after VACV infection.

Figure 1

Mass spectrometry was used to sequence peptides eluted from the indicated soluble HLA class I molecules. Comparison of the pre- and post-infection samples identified a significant fraction of viral peptides (blue) presented after infection. In addition, large alterations in the self peptidome were observed with some peptides disappearing (red), unchanged (green), or newly presented (purple) after infection. The total number of peptides sequenced for each HLA class I molecule is annotated under each chart.
