Abstract excerpt
Every T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire is shaped by a complex probabilistic tangle of genetically determined biases and immune exposures. T cells combine a random V(D)J recombination process with a selection process to generate highly diverse and functional TCRs. The extent to which an individual's genetic background is associated with their resulting TCR repertoire diversity has yet to be fully explored. Using a...
