HLA Type and Chronic Viral Infection Impact Peripheral T-cell Receptor Sharing Between Unrelated Individuals
2021-03-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The human adaptive immune system must generate extraordinary diversity to be able to respond to all possible pathogens. The T-cell repertoire derives this high diversity through somatic recombination of the T-cell receptor (TCR) locus, a random process that results in repertoires that are largely private to each individual. However, certain factors such as low junctional diversity, thymic select...
