Peptide binding predictions for HLA DR, DP and DQ moleculesPeng Wang
La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, La Jolla, USA
BMC Bioinformatics 11:568. 2010..This reflects a significant gap in knowledge as HLA DP and DQ molecules are presumably equally important, and have only been studied less because they are more difficult to handle experimentally...
Derivation of an amino acid similarity matrix for peptide: MHC binding and its application as a Bayesian priorYohan Kim
Division of Vaccine Discovery, La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, La Jolla, California, USA
BMC Bioinformatics 10:394. 2009..Our aim is to quantify this measure of similarity to improve peptide:MHC binding prediction methods. This should help compensate for holes and bias in the sequence space coverage of existing peptide binding datasets...
Locally defined protein phylogenetic profiles reveal previously missed protein interactions and functional relationshipsYohan Kim
Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, California 92093-0505, USA
Proteins 62:1115-24. 2006..Thus, the Multiple-Profile method can be used with other methods to determine functional relationships on a genome scale with wider coverage...
Towards defining molecular determinants recognized by adaptive immunity in allergic disease: an inventory of the available dataKerrie Vaughan
The Immune Epitope Database IEDB, La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology LIAI, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA
J Allergy (Cairo) 2010:628026. 2010..Finally, our analysis also underscores that only a handful of epitopes have thus far been investigated for their immunotherapeutic potential...
Immune epitope database analysis resource (IEDB-AR)Qing Zhang
Immune Epitope Database and Analysis Resource IEDB AR, La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, La Jolla, CA, USA
Nucleic Acids Res 36:W513-8. 2008..New functionalities have been added to most of the previously implemented tools, and a total of eight new tools were added, including two B-cell epitope prediction tools, four T-cell epitope prediction tools and two analysis tools...
Pre-existing immunity against swine-origin H1N1 influenza viruses in the general human populationJason A Greenbaum
Division of Vaccine Discovery, La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 106:20365-70. 2009..These results are consistent with reports about disease incidence, severity, and mortality rates associated with human S-OIV...
Definition of epitopes and antigens recognized by vaccinia specific immune responses: their conservation in variola virus sequences, and use as a model system to study complex pathogensAlessandro Sette
Division of Vaccine Discovery, La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, 9420 Athena Circle, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA
Vaccine 27:G21-6. 2009..Finally, we find that the vast majority of VACV epitopes are conserved in variola virus (VARV), thus suggesting that the epitopes defined herein also have relevance for the efficacy of VACV as a smallpox vaccine...
Applications for T-cell epitope queries and tools in the Immune Epitope Database and Analysis ResourceYohan Kim
La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, 9420 Athena Circle, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA
J Immunol Methods 374:62-9. 2011..We address common questions and concerns faced by users, and identify patterns of usage that have proven successful...
Inferring functional information from domain co-evolutionYohan Kim
Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA
Bioinformatics 22:40-9. 2006..Furthermore, co-evolving regions of proteins detected by our method enable us to make hypotheses about their specific functions, many of which are supported by existing biochemical studies...
