Control of genotypic allelic inclusion through TCR surface expression.

Abstract excerpt

To gain insight into the molecular causes and functional consequences of allelic inclusion of TCR alpha-chains, we develop a computational model for thymocyte selection in which the signal that determines cell fate depends on surface expression. Analysis of receptor pairs on selected dual TCR cells reveals that allelic inclusion permits both autoreactive TCR and receptors not in the single TCR cell repertoire to...
