Epitope Prediction Algorithms for Peptide based Vaccine Design
Peptide-based vaccines, in which small peptides derived from target proteins (epitopes) are used to provoke an immune reaction, have attracted considerable attention recently as a...

Predicting MHC class I epitopes in large datasets
Background: Experimental screening of large sets of peptides with respect to their MHC binding capabilities is still very demanding due to the large number of possible peptide seq...

Optimization algorithms for functional deimmunization of therapeutic proteins
Background: To develop protein therapeutics from exogenous sources, it is necessary to mitigate the risks of eliciting an anti-biotherapeutic immune response. A key aspect of the ...

Hotspot Hunter: a computational system for large-scale screening and selection of candidate immunological hotspots in pathogen p
Background: T-cell epitopes that promiscuously bind to multiple alleles of a human leukocyte antigen (HLA) supertype are prime targets for development of vaccines and immunotherap...

A reinforced merging methodology for mapping unique peptide motifs in members of protein families
Background: Members of a protein family often have highly conserved sequences; most of these sequences carry identical biological functions and possess similar three-dimensional (...
