Binding free energy differences in a TCR-peptide-MHC complex induced by a peptide mutation: a simulation analysis.

Abstract excerpt

Recognition by the T-cell receptor (TCR) of immunogenic peptides presented by class I major histocompatibility complexes (MHCs) is the determining event in the specific cellular immune response against virus-infected cells or tumor cells. It is of great interest, therefore, to elucidate the molecular principles upon which the selectivity of a TCR is based. These principles can in turn be used to design...
