The quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models of peptide binding to MHC molecule are studied through the independent component analysis (ICA) method. The three z amino acid descriptors and the five z amino acid descriptors are used respectively in the models. A training set of 316 peptides and a test set of 786 peptides are used. The predictive accuracy and the area under the receiver operator characteristics curve (AUC) of the three z amino acid descriptors model are 70.3% and 0.70 respectively. The predictive accuracy and AUC of the five z amino acid descriptors are 70.9% and 0.79 respectively. This study helps in further understanding the mechanism of the interaction between MHC molecules and peptides.

Key words: cytotoxic T lymphocyte epitope, independent component analysis, amino acid descriptor, QSAR
