Taken together with the HLA-B*40:01 restricted binding of the PAM and ANXA7 peptides mimicked by SARS-CoV-2, the ALOX5AP splicing variant also mimicked by SARS-CoV-2 suggests the possibility of immune evasion or autoinflammation in HLA-B*40-constrained COVID-19 patients. The gene discussed is ANXA7; the disease is COVID-19.
