Magic™ TCR γ δ Repertoire Profiling

With years of research and development experience in the field of immunology, Creative Biolabs has owned a group of scientists who have the distinguished understanding of the adaptive immune system. We are proficient in providing high-quality service of TCR γ δ CDR3 repertoires profiling by our Magic™ TCR repertoire analysis platform. Our data will provide a comprehensive understanding of the diversity of TCR γ δ repertoire in the physiological condition, which is an important clue to the underlying mechanism of γ δ T cell recognition of tumor antigens.

The Properties of TCR γ δ Repertoire

T lymphocytes are classiﬁed structurally into two subtypes according to the different heterodimers TCR α β and γ δ. γ δ T cells function as sentinels in early host response to infections and malignancies. Although γ δ T cells account for a minor fraction in the peripheral blood of healthy individuals, they constitute a major subset of T cells in the intestine and skin. They serve as a bridge between innate and adaptive immunity in the ﬁrst line defense of tumorigenesis and pathogen infection. Similar to TCR α β, TCR γ δ is also generated by the rearrangement of germline gene V-(D)-J-C fragments. The antigen binding site of TCR γ δ consists of six complementary determinant regions (CDRs). γ δ T cells show more connection diversity compared with TCR α β. The diversity of TCR γ δ CDR3 repertoire is quite dispersed and individually different. The TCR δ chain (TRD) repertoire displayed more diversity and showed less sharing sequences among individuals compared with TCR γ chain (TRG). Previously, the analysis of TCR γ δ CDR3 repertoire is restricted by limited techniques based on clonal sequencing. Therefore, the detailed characteristics of the TCR γ δ CDR3 repertoire remain unclear. A comprehensive analysis would answer fundamental questions about the diversity of the TCR γ δ CDR3 repertoire and elucidate the mechanism underlying γ δ T cell recognition of pathogens and tumor antigens.

TCR γ δ Repertoire Profiling Service in Creative Biolabs

Creative Biolabs has established a high-throughput Magic™ TCR repertoire analysis platform for TCR sequencing. Our scientists can perform a comprehensive analysis of TCR γ δ by immune repertoire sequencing. After the extraction of total RNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) or tissues, RT-PCR and arm-PCRs were performed to amplify the cDNAs. cDNAs are normalized by the γ δ T cell percentage in each sample and then sequenced on our powerful Magic™ platform. The diversity, N-addition length distribution and germline gene V and J segment usage of CDR3 γ and CDR3 δ repertoire are analyzed through our unique bioinformatics peptides.
