  1. The association is given as the amino acid residue within the polyprotein and the HLA restriction. Overall N = 215 for genotype 1A and N = 136 for genotype 3A. Breakdown of HCV sequence numbers for each protein is shown in Supplementary Table 4. ^Indicates adaptations that fall within published epitopes for genotype 1 and with the same HLA restriction (http://www.immuneepitope.org). #HLA class I-associated variation at same site likely due to LD between HLA class I and II alleles known to form haplotypes. GT = genotype, OR = odds ratio.
