The molecular basis of T cell receptor cross-reactivity between MHC and MR1

This project aims to investigate how newly discovered immune cells, known as 'MR1T' cells, function in the body. Preliminary evidence shows that MR1T cells can kill stressed cells. This project expects to generate new knowledge describing precisely how MR1T cells target and kill stressed cells. Expected outcomes of this project include to refine research techniques and models, foster interinstitutional collaborations, and further develop our theory on MR1T cell function. This project should provide significant benefits, such as publication of research articles in high impact journals and generation of experimental tools sought after by researchers in the field.
