Dual TCR-alpha expression on MAIT cells as a potential confounder of TCR interpretation
2021-03-26
Abstract excerpt
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate-like T cells that are highly abundant in human blood and tissues. Most MAIT cells have an invariant T cell receptor (TCR) α chain that uses TRAV1-2 joined to TRAJ33/20/12 and recognize metabolites from bacterial riboflavin synthesis bound to the antigen-presenting molecule, MR1. Recently, our attempts to identify alternative MR1-presented antigens led to the d...
