Table 1: Occurrences of HPV16 pentapeptides in HCMV, C. diphtheriae, C. tetani, B. pertussis, T. gondii, T. cruzi, and H. sapiens proteomes. Column 1: HPV pentapeptide occurrences; Column 2: HPV pentapeptide occurrences (including multiple ones); Column 3: percent of similarity of HPV16 at the pentapeptide level.

Proteome From: 1 2 3*
HCMV 123 271 5
C. diphtheriae 747 1222 31
C. tetani 716 1193 30
B. pertussis 1041 5656 43
T. gondii 1832 18181 76
T. cruzi 1847 17681 77
H. sapiens 2249 102095 94

*% of identical pentapeptides was obtained by dividing the n° of HPV16 pentapeptide occurrences in the proteome (column 1) by the n° of total HPV16 pentapeptides (that is, 2401). Example: the % pentapeptide identity between HCMV and HPV16 proteomes is given by 123/2401, ie, 5% [60].
