Abstract
Effective presentation of antigens by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules to CD8+ T cells is required for viral elimination and generation of long-term immunological memory. In this study, we applied a single-cell, multiomic technology to generate a unified ex vivo characterization of the CD8+ T cell response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) across four major HLA class I alleles. We found that HLA genotype conditions key features of epitope specificity, TCRα/β sequence diversity, and the utilization of pre-existing SARS-CoV-2-reactive memory T cell pools. Single-cell transcriptomics revealed functionally diverse T cell phenotypes of SARS-CoV-2-reactive T cells, associated with both disease stage and epitope specificity. Our results show that HLA variations notably influence the CD8+ T cell repertoire shape and utilization of immune recall upon SARS-CoV-2 infection.
