Identification of the Cryptic HLA-I Immunopeptidome

Abstract excerpt

The success of cancer immunotherapy relies on the ability of cytotoxic T cells to specifically recognize and eliminate tumor cells based on peptides presented by HLA-I. Although the peptide epitopes that elicit the corresponding immune response often remain unidentified, it is generally assumed that neoantigens, due to tumor-specific mutations, are the most common targets. Here, we used a mass spectrometric...
