Peptide length-based prediction of peptide-MHC class II binding
MOTIVATION Algorithms for predicting peptide-MHC class II binding are typically similar, if not identical, to methods for predicting peptide-MHC class I binding despite known differences between the two scenarios. We investigate whether representing one of these differences, the greater range of peptide lengths binding MHC class II, improves the performance of these algorithms. RESULTS A non-...
متن کاملOn Evaluating MHC-II Binding Peptide Prediction Methods
Choice of one method over another for MHC-II binding peptide prediction is typically based on published reports of their estimated performance on standard benchmark datasets. We show that several standard benchmark datasets of unique peptides used in such studies contain a substantial number of peptides that share a high degree of sequence identity with one or more other peptide sequences in th...
متن کاملCatalysis of peptide dissociation from class II MHC-peptide complexes.
Certain peptides such as dynorphin A [dynA-(1-13)] enhance the release of antigenic peptides bound to class II MHC molecules at neutral pH. This enhanced release has been termed push off. Previous work has shown that the antigenic pigeon cytochrome c peptide PCC-(89-104) has at least two conformational isomers when bound to the class II MHC protein I-Ek. We have accordingly studied the push off...
متن کاملBiodMHC: an online server for the prediction of MHC class II-peptide binding affinity.
Effective identification of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules restricted peptides is a critical step in discovering immune epitopes. Although many online servers have been built to predict class II MHC-peptide binding affinity, they have been trained on different datasets, and thus fail in providing a unified comparison of various methods. In this paper, we present our implementa...
متن کاملClass II-associated invariant chain peptide-independent binding of invariant chain to class II MHC molecules.
The class II-associated invariant chain peptide (CLIP) region of invariant chain (Ii) is believed to play a critical role in the assembly and transport of MHC class II alphabetaIi complexes through its interaction with the class II peptide-binding site. The role of the CLIP sequence was investigated by using mutant Ii molecules with altered affinity for the DR1 peptide-binding site. Both high- ...
