Summary: The development of new vaccines and antibody therapeutics typically takes several years and requires over $1bn in investment. Accurate knowledge of the paratope (antibody binding site) can speed up and reduce the cost of this process by improving our understanding of antibody–antigen binding. We present Paragraph, a structure-based paratope prediction tool that outperforms current state-of-the-art tools using simpler feature vectors and noantigen information. Availability and implementation: Source code is freely available at www.github.com/oxpig/Paragraph. Contact: deane@stats.ox.ac.uk Supplementary information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
