Figure 2

Hydrophobicity plots of B-cell epitope regions- (A) aa s115–155 and (B) aa s160–207 of HBV/S showing altered hydrophobicity due to substitutions at specific positions, obtained by the Kyte and Doolittle method using PROTSCALE program in EXPASY. Values were normalized between 0 and 1, and a sliding window of five amino acids with a step size of 1 was applied.
