B-cell epitope prediction. (a) Kolaskar and Tongaonkar antigenicity prediction of the proposed epitope with a threshold value of 1.037. (b) Emini surface accessibility prediction of the proposed epitope, with a threshold value of 1.0. (c) Parker hydrophilicity prediction of the epitope, with a threshold of −0.352. Notes: the x-axis and y-axis represent the sequence position and antigenic propensity, respectively. The regions above the threshold are antigenic (desired), shown in yellow.
