Abstract excerpt
CD8+ T cells are capable of recognizing mutation-derived neoantigens displayed by HLA class I molecules, thereby exhibiting the ability to distinguish between cancer and normal cells. However, accumulating evidence has shown that only a small fraction of nonsynonymous somatic mutations give rise to clinically relevant neoantigens. The properties of such neoantigens, which must be presented by HLA and immunogenic...
