Abstrakt: The pivotal role of T cell responses has been well studied in both protective and destructive scenarios. T cells recognize peptide epitopes presented on Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) through their surface T cell receptors (TCR). Advances in single-cell RNA sequencing have identified millions of TCRs, but only a minuscule fraction of them have known epitopes. Recently, cell-based T cell antigen discovery platforms have emerged onto the landscape. Here, Jin and colleagues, report a novel antigen discovery platform called Tsyn-seq that relies on sequencing TCR-peptide-HLA-induced synapses for genome-wide epitope screening. See related article by Jin et al., p. 530 (3).
