Sequence and Structural Analyses Reveal Distinct and Highly Diverse Human CD8+ TCR Repertoires to Immunodominant Viral Antigens
1 Apr 2017
Abstract excerpt
A diverse T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire is essential for controlling viral infections. However, information about TCR repertoires to defined viral antigens is limited. We performed a comprehensive analysis of CD8 + TCR repertoires for two dominant viral epitopes: pp65 495–503 (NLV) of cytomegalovirus and M1 58–66 (GIL) of influenza A virus. The highly individualized repertoires (87–5,533 α or β clonotypes per...
