Epidemiological studies show that SARS-CoV-2 infection leads to severe symptoms only in a fraction of patients, but the determinants of individual susceptibility to the virus are still unknown. The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I exposes viral peptides in all nucleated cells and is involved in the susceptibility to many human diseases. Here, we use artificial neural networks to analyze the binding of SARS-CoV-2 peptides with polymorphic human MHC class I molecules. In this way, we ...[more]
