abstract = "The C57 Black 6 (C57BL/6) mice are one the earliest and most widely used inbred laboratory animals in biomedical research and vaccine development. We propose developing a bioinformatics system for the identification of T-cell epitopes in C57BL/6 mice by integrating multiple contributing factors critical to the antigen processing and recognition pathway. The interaction between peptides and MHC molecules is a highly specific step in the antigen processing pathway and T-cell mediated immunity. As the first step of the project, we built a computational tool for predicting MHC class I binding peptides for the C57BL/6 mice. Utilizing deep learning methods, we trained and rigorously validated the prediction models using naturally eluted MHC ligands. The prediction models are of high accuracy.",
