Abstract: Provided are methods for isolating T-cells with T cell receptors (TCRs) optimized for reactivity to specific peptides and decreased cross-reactivity to non-target peptides. Advantageously, TCRs of the invention can be optimized to target cancer antigens and peptides while having reducing reactivity to healthy cells. Methods of the invention utilize a novel combination of culturing conditions that increase T-cell activation and allow for validation of TCR activity. Culturing conditions of the invention further reduce culturing times generally needed to achieve expanded reactive T-cells. Because of the robust nature of the activation and validation conditions of the present invention, variants of identified TCRs can also be optimized and validated for their response to peptides, including cancer peptides.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and systems that identify novel antigens that bind to a particular T cell receptor and also validate the immunogenicity of the potential antigens to activate the TCR. The methods allow for development of an exhaustively profile of on-target and off-target reactivity of novel antigens.

Abstract: Described herein are methods and systems used to provide an exhaustive cross-reactivity profile for a TCR.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided for peptide sequences that are ligands for a T cell receptor (TCR) of interest, in a given MHC context.

Abstract: Described herein is an antigen screening library comprising a plurality of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-antigen polypeptide complexes, the HLA-antigen polypeptide complexes comprising: (a) an HLA polypeptide; (b) a randomized antigen polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 209, wherein the randomized antigen polypeptide is selected to specifically bind to peptide binding cleft of the HLA polypeptide; and (c) a ?2 microglobulin polypeptide. These libraries can be used to determine antigenic polypeptides capable of interacting and stimulating a selected T cell receptor (TCR).
