Individuals can carry different variants of HLA genes. Some HLA variants bind a broad range of peptide sequences, whereas others are more selective. Is this variation associated with susceptibility to infection? www.nature.com/articles/s41...

HLA-II peptide-binding diversity shapes humoral immune responses and susceptibility to infections - Nature Communications
Human leukocyte antigen class II (HLA-II) are involved in the presentation of peptides to helper T cells which guide in the B cell response and antibody production. Here Magyari et al, show that HLA-I...

Five mutational “fingerprints” could help predict how visible tumours are to the immune system
Researchers from the HUN-REN Szeged Biological Research Centre and HCEMM have just published a new study suggesting that it’s not simply the number of tumour mutations that matters for immunothe...

Five dominant amino acid substitution signatures shape tumour immunity - Molecular Systems Biology
Although numerous mutational processes operate in cancer, their functional impacts are unclear. We hypothesised that certain mutation sources preferentially generate amino acid substitutions that evad...

C > U mutations generate immunogenic peptides in SARS-CoV-2 - Nature Communications
The effect of new viral mutations on T cell responses remains unclear. Here, Balogh et al. show that most new mutations in SARS-CoV-2 are C > U, a bias that leads to an enhanced T cell re...

I C U mutant! Our new paper is out! Our immune system doesn’t just fight viruses – it edits them. APOBEC enzymes introduce C>U mutations that often make viral proteins easier for HLA molecules and T-cells to detect, boosting immune recognition. nature.com/articles/s41... #COVID_19
