DPB1 T-Cell Epitope Algorithm v2.0
Classification of HLA-DPB1 mismatches based on T-cell-epitope Groups (TCE-Groups) has been shown to identify mismatches that might be tolerated (permissive) and those that would increase risks (non-permissive) after unrelated-donor haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). This calculator allows you to enter the HLA-DPB1 typing of a patient and donor and view the predicted T-Cell epitopes and resulting prediction of the effect of mismatching when selecting appropriate donors for HSCT recipients.
