Abstract excerpt

The human T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) is the counter-receptor for the HLA/peptide complex displayed on the surface of antigen-presenting cells. It confers antigen specificity on T lymphocytes and therefore plays a central role in pathogen recognition and host response. The most frequently used form of the TCR is a heterodimer composed of variable alpha and beta chains. We investigated allele frequencies for...
