Neoantigens are widely reported to induce T-cell response and lead to tumor regression, indicating a promising potential to immunotherapy. Previously, we constructed an open-access database, i.e., dbPepNeo, providing a systematic resource for human tumor neoantigens to storage and query. In order to expand data volume and application scope, we updated dbPepNeo to version 2.0 (http://www.biostatistics.online/dbPepNeo2). Here, we provide about 801 high-confidence (HC) neoantigens (increased by 170%) and 842,289 low-confidence (LC) HLA immunopeptidomes (increased by 107%). Notably, 55 class II HC neoantigens and 630 neoantigen-reactive T-cell receptor-β (TCRβ) sequences were firstly included. Besides, two new analytical tools are developed, DeepCNN-Ineo and BLASTdb. DeepCNN-Ineo predicts the immunogenicity of class I neoantigens, and BLASTdb performs local alignments to look for sequence similarities in dbPepNeo2.0. Meanwhile, the web features and interface have been greatly improved and enhanced.
新抗原被广泛报道能诱导 T 细胞反应,导致肿瘤消退,这表明其在免疫治疗方面有很大的潜力。此前,我们构建了一个开放获取的数据库,即 dbPepNeo,为人类肿瘤新抗原的存储和查询提供了一个系统的资源。为了扩大数据量和应用范围,我们将 dbPepNeo 更新到了 2.0 版本(http://www.biostatistics.online/dbPepNeo2)。在这里,我们提供了大约 801 个高可信度(HC)新抗原(增加了 170%)和 842,289 个低可信度(LC)HLA 免疫肽组(增加了 107%)。值得注意的是,首次纳入了 55 个 II 类 HC 新抗原和 630 个新抗原反应性 T 细胞受体-β(TCRβ)序列。此外,还开发了两个新的分析工具,即 DeepCNN-Ineo 和 BLASTdb。DeepCNN-Ineo 预测了 I 类新抗原的免疫原性,BLASTdb 则在 dbPepNeo2.0 中进行局部比对,以寻找序列相似性。同时,网站的功能和界面得到了极大的改进和增强。
