We describe a methodology to calculate the relative free energies of protein-peptide complex formation. The interaction energy was decomposed into nonpolar, electrostatic and entropic contributions. A free energy-surface area relationship served to calculate the nonpolar free energy term. The electr

A peptide encoded by the adenovirus type 5 early region I (Ad5 EI) is the target structure for H-2Db-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) that are capable of tumour eradication in vivo. With the use of a set of peptides in which each individual amino acid (aa) was deleted out of the sequence, we
Two HLA-B27 subtypes, B'2702 and B'2705, both associated with ankylosing spondylitis, were tested for binding affinity with a panel of polyalanine model nonapeptides carrying Arg at position 2 (P2) and a series of different amino acids at position 9 (P9)\_ The alpha chains were isolated from BTB(B\*
The effect of polypeptide binding on the stability of the substrate binding domain of the molecular chaperone DnaK has been studied by thermodynamic analysis. The calorimetric scan of the fragment of the substrate binding domain DnaK384-638, consisting of a h-domain and an a-helical lid, showed two
## Modulation of peptide binding by HLA-B27 polymorphism in pockets A and B, and peptide specificity of B*2703 The results in this study address three aspects of peptide binding to the diseaseassociated antigen HLA-B27 and its modulation by polymorphism: the contribution of major anchor residues 2
