EBNA-1 sequence variation identified with next-generation sequencing technology, and impact on HLA-DRB1*15 binding affinity within known epitopes.
<p>The two most frequent variants for the A) AEG epitope and B) MVF epitope are printed in bold, the most frequent variant is underlined. All epitopes are predicted to be weak binders (affinity 50nM-500nM).</p
EBNA-1 quasispecies detected with FLX sequencing.
<p>Minority EBV sequence variants at a level of ≥10% were detected in two samples only. Sequence mixtures present at a ≥5% threshold revealed minority variants in 3.6% of investigated nucleotide positions (27/749 nucleotides sequenced,), increasing to 5.0% at a ≥2% cut-off (37/749 nucleotides,) and 8.3% at a ≥1% cut-off (62/749 nucleotides,). Samples 7, 8 and 13 did not have minority species present at ≥1%.</p
