Systematic pattern analyses of Vδ2+ TCRs reveal that shared “public” Vδ2+ γδ T cell clones are a consequence of rearrangement bias and a higher expansion status

BackgroundVγ9Vδ2+ T cells are a major innate T cell subset in human peripheral blood. Their Vδ2+ VDJ-rearrangements are short and simple in the fetal thymus and gradually increase in diversity and CDR3 length along with development. So-called “public” versions of Vδ2+ TCRs are shared among individua...
