Mechanical forces impair antigen discrimination by reducing differences in T cell receptor off-rates
T cells use their T cell receptors (TCRs) to discriminate between lower‐affinity self and higher‐affinity foreign peptide major‐histocompatibility‐complexes (pMHCs) based on the TCR/pMHC off‐rate. It is now appreciated that T cells generate mechanical forces during this process but how force impa...
