Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase Establishes and Broadens Anti-Viral CD8(+) T Cell Immunodominance Hierarchies

The action of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) on mouse T cell receptor (TCR) genes accounts for ∼ 90% of T cell repertoire diversity. We report that in TdT -/- mice, total T(CD8+) responses to influenza and vaccinia viruses are reduced by ∼ 30% relative to wt mice. We find that T(CD8+) r...
