An introduction to epitope prediction methods and software.
In this paper, current prediction methods and algorithms for both T- and B cell epitopes are reviewed, and a comprehensive summary of epitope prediction software and databases currently available online is also provided. This review can offer researchers in this field a sense of direction and insights for future work. However, our main purpose is to introduce clinical and basic biomedical researchers who are not familiar with these biological analysis tools and databases to these online resources and to provide guidance on how to use them effectively.
