A recent preprint uploaded to bioRxiv shows the power of the iReceptor Gateway to integrate data from multiple labs and institutions, in this case to help study the adaptive immune response to COVID-19. Meysman and colleagues (Tracking SARS-CoV-2 T cells with epitope-T-cell receptor recognition models, published Sep 9) compared longitudinal data from Minervina et al. and Schultheiß et al. to examine how T-cells that react to SARS-CoV-2 behave during disease progression.

In collaboration with the AIRR Community, we are pleased to announce the tenth COVID-19 AIRR-seq study available for searching and download in the AIRR Data Commons and through the iReceptor Gateway. 542 M annotated sequences from Nolan et.

In collaboration with the AIRR Community, we are pleased to announce the ninth COVID-19 AIRR-seq study available for searching and download in the AIRR Data Commons and through the iReceptor Gateway. 12 M annotated sequences from Kuri-Cervantes et. al Comprehensive mapping of immune perturbations associated with severe COVID-19 have been loaded into the AIRR COVID-19 repository and are now available through the iReceptor Gateway.

Network outage Aug 25 07:00 - 07:30 PST

iReceptor's infrastructure provider, Compute Canada, has a scheduled network outage on Tuesday August 25 between 7:00-7:30 PDT/10:00-10:30 EDT. The outage is expected to be less than 2 minutes, but could be up to 20 minutes. All iReceptor services may be impacted by this outage.
