Level of neo-epitope predecessor and mutation type determine T cell activation of MHC binding peptides
Abstract Background Targeting epitopes derived from neo-antigens (or “neo-epitopes”) represents a promising immunotherapy approach with limited off-target effects. However, most peptides predicted using MHC binding prediction algorithms do not induce a CD8 + T cell response, and there is a crucial n...
