Este articulo es un Preprint
Los preprints son informes de investigación preliminares que no han sido certificados por revisión por pares. No deben considerarse para guiar la práctica clínica o los comportamientos relacionados con la salud y no deben publicarse en los medios como información establecida.
Los preprints publicados en línea permiten a los autores recibir comentarios rápidamente, y toda la comunidad científica puede evaluar de forma independiente el trabajo y responder adecuadamente. Estos comentarios se publican junto con los preprints para que cualquiera pueda leer y servir como una revisión pospublicación.

ABSTRACT
We analyzed the dynamics of the earliest T cell response to SARS-COV-2. A wave of TCRs strongly but transiently expand during infection, frequently peaking the same week as the first positive PCR test. These expanding TCR CDR3s were enriched for sequences functionally annotated as SARS-COV-2 specific. Most epitopes recognized by the expanding TCRs were highly conserved between SARS-COV-2 strains, but not with circulating human coronaviruses. Many expanding CDR3s were also present at high precursor frequency in pre-pandemic TCR repertoires. A similar set of early response TCRs specific for lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus epitopes were also found at high frequency in the pre-infection naive repertoire. High frequency naive precursors may allow the T cell response to respond rapidly during the crucial early phases of acute viral infection. One-Sentence SummaryHigh frequency naive precursors underly the rapid T cell response during the crucial early phases of acute viral infection.
