- Binding of peptides to HLA-DR4(B1*0401) was determined in a competition binding assay. IC50 = 50% inhibitory concentration. IC50 < 1 μM = high affinity binder; IC50 between 1 and 10 μM = good binder; IC50 between 10 and 100 μM = intermediate binder; IC50 between 100 and 1,000 μM = poor binder. The decimals do not reflect the accuracy of the data but represent the calculated geometric means obtained in two experiments. The HLA-DRB1*0401 expressing B lymphoblastoid cell line was used as a source of antigen-presenting cells. Background values for hybridomas 5G11, 8B12, 14G11 and 20H5 were 8,147, 7,470, 8,598 and 35,749 mean fluorescence units/counts, respectively. Hybridoma IL-2 response is expressed as stimulation index (SI) calculated as the ratio of mean fluorescence counts of antigen-stimulated cultures and control cultures. Values in bold are considered positive (SI > 2). Data are representative of at least three independent experiments. ND, not determined.
