Models of Self-Peptide Sampling by Developing T Cells Identify Candidate Mechanisms of Thymic Selection

Conventional and regulatory T cells develop in the thymus where they are exposed to samples of self-peptide MHC (pMHC) ligands. This probabilistic process selects for cells within a range of responsiveness that allows the detection of foreign antigen without excessive responses to self. Regulatory T...
