The Chance That Two Randomly Selected T cells Express an IDENTICAL T Cell Receptor = 0

What does this mean?? Selection for high affinity T cells

The same is true for HLA-DQ2: 95% of patients

Conclusions

Biased TCR repertoire Structurally conserved INTIMATELY ASSOCIATED WITH DISEASE Emergence of such T cells may be required for disease development Diagnostics/prognostics?? Therapy?? Eliminate T cells with biased TCR??
