<table>Queries utilized the Source Antigen Molecule Finder to specify AChR, selecting B cell and T cell responses only (MHC binding and MHC ligand elution assays were excluded), and specifying Host Organism. The total number of positive epitopes was then tallied to generate relative percentages of reactivities.</table>
