Highly disordered protein regions are prevalently hydrophilic, extremely sensitive to proteolysis in vitro, and are expected to be under-represented as T-cell epitopes. The aim of this research was to find out whether disorder and hydropathy prediction methods could help in understanding epitope processing and presentation. According to the pan-specific T-cell epitope predictors NetMHCpan and NetMHCIIpan and 9 publicly available disorder predictors, frequency of epitopes presented by human leukocyte antigens (HLA) class-I or -II was found to be more than 2.5 times higher in ordered than in disordered protein regions (depending on the disorder predictor). Both HLA class-I and HLA class-II binding epitopes are prevalently hydrophilic in disordered and prevalently hydrophobic in ordered protein regions, whereas epitopes recognized by HIA class-II alleles are more hydrophobic than those recognized by HLA class-I. As regards both classes of HLA molecules, high-affinity binding epitopes disp...lay more hydrophobicity than low affinity-binding epitopes (in both ordered and disordered regions). Epitopes belonging to disordered protein regions were not predicted to have poor affinity to HIA class-II molecules, as expected from disorder intrinsic proteolytic instability. The relation of epitope hydrophobicity and order/disorder location was also valid if alleles were grouped according to the HIA class-I and HLA class-II supertypes, except for the class-I supertype A3 in which the main part of recognized epitopes was prevalently hydrophilic. Regarding specific supertypes, the affinity of epitopes belonging to ordered regions varies only slightly (depending on the disorder predictor) compared to the affinity of epitopes in corresponding disordered regions. The distribution of epitopes in ordered and disordered protein regions has revealed that the curves of order-epitope distribution were convex-like while the curves of disorder-epitope distribution were concave-like. The percentage of prevalently hydrophobic epitopes increases with the enhancement of epitope promiscuity level and moving from disordered to ordered regions. These data suggests that reverse vaccinology, oriented towards promiscuous and high-affinity epitopes, is also oriented towards prevalently hydrophobic, ordered regions. The analysis of predicted and experimentally evaluated epitopes of cancer-testis antigen MAGE-A3 has confirmed that the majority of T-cell epitopes, particularly those that are promiscuous or naturally processed, was located in ordered and disorder/order boundary protein regions overlapping hydrophobic regions.
