This includes methods that generate a graphical rendering of antigenicity of a protein, such as a Hopp and Woods plot., Immunological system are cellular or humoral. In vaccine design to induces a cellular immune response, methods must search for antigens that can be recognized by the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules present in T lymphocytes. If a humoral response is required, antigens for B cells must be identified., This is usually done in the development of peptide-specific antibodies or multi-epitope vaccines. Methods might use sequence data (for example motifs) and / or structural data.
