A mechanistic model predicting cell surface presentation of peptides by MHC class I proteins, considering peptide competition, viral intracellular kinetics and host genotype factors

Major histocompatability complex class I (MHC-I) proteins present short fragments of pathogenic or cancerous proteins (peptides) on the surface of infected cells for recognition by T lymphocytes which are stimulated upon recognition of foreign peptides. Due to the diversity of peptide sequences and...
