Mass spectrometry has emerged as the method of choice for the exploration of the immunopeptidome. Insights from the immunopeptidome promise novel cancer therapeutic approaches and a better understanding of the basic mechanisms of our immune system. To meet the computational demands from the steady gain in popularity and reach of mass spectrometry-based immunopeptidomics analysis, we created the SysteMHC Atlas project, a first-of-its-kind computational pipeline and resource repository dedicated to standardizing data analysis and public dissemination of immunopeptidomic datasets.
