  1. a The immune epitope database (http://tools.immuneepitope.org/mhcii). The prediction was run for three times
  2. b H2-IAb, H2-IAd and H2-IEd alleles are mouse MHC class II molecules; the HLA-DRB1*01:01 allele is a human MHC class II molecule
  3. c We chose 15 amino acids for analysis each time
  4. d Low percentile = high level binding, high percentile = low level binding
