Stability of peptide-HLA-I complexes and tapasin folding facilitation - tools to define immunogenic peptides

Geironson Ulfsson, Linda LU ; Roder, Gustav and Paulsson, Kajsa M LU orcid (2012) In FEBS Letters 586(9). p.1336-1343
Abstract
Only a small fraction of the peptides generated inside the cell end up being presented by HLA-I on the cell surface. High stability of peptide-HLA-I complexes and a low HLA-I tapasin-facilitation have been proposed to predict immunogenicity. We here set out to investigate if these parameters correlated and defined immunogenic peptides. Both peptide-HLA-B*08:01 and peptide-HLA-A*02:01 complexes showed small differences in tapasin-facilitation and larger differences in stability. This suggests that the stability of immunogenic peptide-HLA-I complexes vary above an HLA-I allomorph dependent lower limit (e. g. > 2 h for HLA-A*02:01), immunogenicity predicted by tapasin-facilitation may be defined by an equally allomorph unique upper value...
