Evolution of Antigen-specific T Cell Receptors In Vivo: Preimmune and Antigen-driven Selection of Preferred Complementarity-determining Region 3 (CDR3) Motifs

Antigen (Ag)-driven selection of helper T cells (Th) in normal animals has been difficult to study and remains poorly understood. Using the major histocompatibility complex class II– restricted murine response to pigeon cytochrome c (PCC), we provide evidence for both preimmune and Ag-driven selecti...
