Microbiota epitope similarity either dampens or enhances the immunogenicity of disease-associated antigenic epitopes

The microbiome influences adaptive immunity and molecular mimicry influences T cell reactivity. Here, we evaluated whether the sequence similarity of various antigens to the microbiota dampens or increases immunogenicity of T cell epitopes. Sets of epitopes and control sequences derived from 38 anti...
