T lymphocytes need less than 3 min to discriminate between peptide MHCs with similar TCR-binding parameters.
T lymphocytes need to detect rare cognate foreign peptides among numerous foreign and self-peptides. This discrimination seems to be based on the kinetics of TCRs binding to their peptide-MHC (pMHC) ligands, but there is little direct information on the minimum time required for processing elementar...
