APOBEC-related mutagenesis and neo-peptide hydrophobicity: implications for response to immunotherapy

Tumor-associated neo-antigens are mutated peptides that allow the immune system to recognize the affected cell as foreign. Cells carrying excessive mutation load often develop mechanisms of tolerance. PD-L1/PD-1 checkpoint immunotherapy is a highly promising approach to overcome these protective sig...
