Deskripsi
For T cells, functional antigen receptors are selected in the thymus from a pre-selection repertoire by interaction with self MHCs. Here the authors show that specific, non-germline coded features located in the complementarity determining region 3 of the pre-selection antigen receptors are essential for the selection of MHC-restricted repertoire.
