Here, we report a reference set of TRB genes extracted from the rhesus macaque genome, most of which were expressed by TCRβ sequences in our extensive database of TCRβ repertoires involved in CD8 + T cell responses to the immunodominant Mamu-A*01-restricted SL8/TL8 and CM9 epitopes derived from SIV. The best human match to each macaque region was identified and then used as a guide to determine the exact length and terminal ends of the rhesus macaque TRB gene sequences, as well as intron and exon positions. ./cache/cord-336573-bpg1dg24.txt ./txt/cord-336573-bpg1dg24.txt
