An HLA-B35-restricted epitope modified at an anchor residue results in an antagonist peptide.

Peptides associated with HLA-B35 commonly have a proline or occasionally a serine residue in the P2 anchor position of the peptide, with a tyrosine at the C terminus. Based on this motif, we identified an octamer epitope from influenza A matrix protein which is presented by HLA-B35. The requirements...
