Abstract

<p>Microarray slides were incubated with IgY, IgYΔFc, or IgY/IgYΔFc isolated for egg yolks of vaccinated either after the initial or booster vaccination series, or serum from vaccinated rabbits (first column- amino acid peptide starts with, second column- IgY from egg yolks after initial vaccination series, third column- IgYΔFc from egg yolks after initial vaccination series, fourth column- IgY/IgYΔFc from egg yolks after initial vaccination series, fifth column- IgY/IgYΔFc from egg yolks after booster vaccination, sixth column- sera from vaccinated rabbit). Reactivity was measured based on a spectrum ranging from no activity in white, mild reactivity in gray, to strong reactivity in red. Epitopes regions marked with a (*) indicate epitopes of high interest after long-range booster vaccination. (::) indicate previously published amino acid regions with which human sera from HPS patients were strongly reactive [<a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0003803#pntd.0003803.ref034" target="_blank">34</a>]. (♦) indicate unique epitopes that rabbit IgG recognized strongly compared to IgY/IgYΔFc from eggs of vaccinated geese.</p
