The present invention relates to a method for structure-based prediction
of properties of peptides and peptide analogs in complex with major
histocompatibility (MHC) class I and class II molecules. The said
properties mainly relate to the three-dimensional structure of an
MHC/peptide complex and the binding affinity of a peptide for an MHC
receptor. The invention further relates to a computer program and a
device therefor. The invention further relates to data produced by a
method of the invention. The invention further relates to peptides and
peptide analogs predicted to bind to target-MHC molecules. The present
invention thus relates to the field of immunology, with possible
applications in manufacture of vaccinates, de-immunization of proteins,
and manufacture of therapeutic agents, especially immunotherapeutic
agents.
