Figure 2. Eluted peptides show higher binding affinity to HLA and more efficient C-terminal processing.

The boxplots compare eluted 9mer peptides and predicted binders from the same set of source proteins in terms of (A) predicted binding affinity to A*02:01, B*15:01, and B*27:05, respectively, and (B) predicted C-terminal processing probability. For the matter of correctness, we removed eluted peptides from the data set that had also been part of the NetChop training set (n = 15).
