Abstract
PREDmafa is a computational system for prediction of peptide binding to three transcriptionally abundant major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I alleles of Mauritian cynomolgus macaque, an important animal model for the study of human disease. The prediction system utilizes quantitative matrices, which were validated using experimentally determined binders and supported by in vivo studies. We developed 8-mer and 9-mer prediction matrices for Mafa-A1*063:02, 9-mer, 10-mer, and 11-mer prediction matrices for Mafa-B*011:01, and a 9-mer prediction matrix for Mafa-B*075:01. To our knowledge, PRED mafa is the first online computational system for predicting peptides that bind Mafa molecules. It is available at http://cvc.dfci.harvard.edu/mafa/.
