T cells play a crucial role in controlling and driving the immune response with their ability to discriminate peptides derived from healthy as well as pathogenic proteins. In this review, we focus on the currently available computational tools for ep...
Prediction of T-cell receptor (TCR) interactions with MHC-peptide complexes remains highly challenging. This challenge is primarily due to three dominant factors: data accuracy, data scarceness, and problem complexity. Here, we showcase that "shallow...
The activation of T cells is triggered by the interactions of T cell receptors (TCRs) with their epitopes, which are peptides presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on the surfaces of antigen presenting cells (APC). While each TCR can on...

Adaptive immunity is mediated by lymphocyte B and T cells, which respectively express a vast and diverse repertoire of B cell and T cell receptors and, in conjunction with peptide antigen presentation through major histocompatibility complexes (MHCs)...
Deep learning algorithms have been utilized to achieve enhanced performance in pattern-recognition tasks. The ability to learn complex patterns in data has tremendous implications in immunogenomics. T-cell receptor (TCR) sequencing assesses the diver...
The identification of SARS-CoV-2-specific T cell receptor (TCR) sequences is critical for understanding T cell responses to SARS-CoV-2. Accordingly, we reanalyze publicly available data from SARS-CoV-2-recovered patients who had low-severity disease ...
Current sequencing methods allow for detailed samples of T cell receptors (TCR) repertoires. To determine from a repertoire whether its host had been exposed to a target, computational tools that predict TCR-epitope binding are required. Currents too...
BACKGROUND: Deep learning has emerged as a versatile approach for predicting complex biological phenomena. However, its utility for biological discovery has so far been limited, given that generic deep neural networks provide little insight into the ...
Immunodominant T cell epitopes preferentially targeted in multiple individuals are the critical element of successful vaccines and targeted immunotherapies. However, the underlying principles of this "convergence" of adaptive immunity among different...
