MHC-Fine: Fine-tuned AlphaFold for precise MHC-peptide complex prediction.

The precise prediction of major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-peptide complex structures is pivotal for understanding cellular immune responses and advancing vaccine design. In this study, we enhanced AlphaFold's capabilities by fine-tuning it with a specialized dataset consisting of exclusively high-resolution class I MHC-peptide crystal structures. This tailored approach aimed to address the generalist nature of AlphaFold's original training, which, while broad-ranging, lacked the granularity necessary for the high-precision demands of class I MHC-peptide interaction prediction.
