  2. Urine of five mouse strains (B10, B10.D2, B6, B6/β2m−/− and BALB/c) was collected in metabolic cages overnight. For each strain, urine mixtures of 4 to 5 mice were subjected to MS analysis. The MHC anchor amino acids are marked in bold. Asterisks indicate peptides that were chosen for quantification (see Table 2 for two examples).
