Abstract excerpt
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) plays important roles in the workings of the human immune system. Specificity of MHC binding to peptide fragments from cellular and pathogens' proteins has been found to correlate with disease outcome and pathogen or cancer evolution. In this paper we propose a novel approach to predicting binding configurations and energies for MHC class II molecules, whose epitopes are...
