Conserved Filovirus GP1, 2 Pre-protein Epitopes by Multiple and Basic Local Sequence Alignments. This figure shows the 3 highly conserved Filovirus GP1, 2 Pre-protein epitopes as determined by ClusatlW and BLAST-P. Plate A shows the distribution of the epitopes across the study 4 Ebolavirus spp. and MARV GP1, 2 pre-proteins. Plate B reveals the two sources of cross-reactivity with UG-Filo-Peptide 3 predicted by the SIB-BLAST-P tool. Plate C details the distribution of the 3 epitopes within the GP1, 2 of the Zaire ebolavirus (EBOV) strain associated with the 2013–2016 EVD outbreak in West Africa
