Symbiotic bacteria-dependent expansion of MR1-reactive T cells causes autoimmunity in the absence of Bcl11b
MR1 functions as an antigen presenting protein on cells in addition to MAIT cells. Here the authors use an early T cell-specific Bcl11b-deficient mouse that develops autoimmunity through a population of nonconventional MR1-restricted T cells and characterise their function.
