T cell receptor sequencing (TCR-seq)

Definition
AI-generated

Sequencing rearranged TCR chains to profile clonal diversity and antigen-experienced compartments—used in tumor and infection companion studies.

Why it matters in GWAS

Bioinformatics methods determine how variants, expression, and epigenetic state are measured and summarized—shaping GWAS covariates, multi-omic integration, and functional follow-up.

Example usage

"Quality-controlled T cell receptor sequencing (TCR-seq) data were used to prioritize robust loci and downstream functional follow-up."
