Is TCR/pMHC Affinity a Good Estimate of the T-cell Response? An Answer Based on Predictions From 12 Phenotypic Models

On the T-cell surface the TCR is the only molecule that senses antigen, and the engagement of TCR with its specific antigenic peptide (agonist)/MHC complex (pMHC) is determined by the biochemical parameters of the TCR-pMHC interaction. This interaction is the keystone of the adaptive immune response...
