Area of Science:

  • Immunoinformatics
  • Computational Biology
  • Web Server Development

Background:

  • T-cell epitope prediction tools exist but often lack user-friendly interfaces.
  • Processing large numbers of predicted epitopes requires specialized bioinformatics skills.
  • Visualizing and analyzing epitope data across various MHC alleles is challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an intuitive web-based tool for interactive analysis of T-cell epitopes.
  • To provide researchers with accessible methods for evaluating predicted epitopes.
  • To facilitate the selection of candidate epitopes for experimental validation.

Main Methods:

  • Developed Epitope-Evaluator using the Shiny/R framework.
  • Integrated six distinct analytical tools for epitope assessment.
  • Enabled interactive visualization and data download (JPG, text files).

Main Results:

  • Identified specific MHC Class I alleles (HLA-B*40, HLA-B*27:05, HLA-B*07:02) recognizing fewer SARS-CoV-2 epitopes.
  • Discovered shared and variant-specific epitopes across SARS-CoV-2 Spike variants (Delta, Omicron, Wuhan).
  • Demonstrated the tool's utility in simplifying epitope interpretation and selection.

Conclusions:

  • Epitope-Evaluator lowers the barrier to entry for T-cell epitope analysis.
  • The tool offers intuitive graphical representations for easier candidate epitope selection.
  • Facilitates experimental validation by streamlining the interpretation of immunoinformatic predictions.
