T-cell receptors (TCRs) are formed by stochastic gene rearrangements, theoretically generating >10

sequences. They are selected during thymopoiesis, which releases a repertoire of about 10
8
unique TCRs per individual. How evolution shaped a process that produces TCRs that can effectively handle a countless and evolving set of infect...
