We investigated differences in peptide repertoire when β2-microglobulin is fused to the HLA-I heavy chain. We observed: (1) that immunopeptidomes changed in this condition, (2) an overall increased median IC50 of the entire peptide repertoire, and (3) a reduced presentation of cancer-specific epitopes with a strong predicted binding affinity for HLA-I. ABSTRACT β2-Microglobulin (β2m) is … Read more
