T cells detect peptide antigens presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins via their T cell receptor (TCR). The sequence diversity of possible antigens, with trillions of potential peptide-MHC targets, makes it challenging to study, characterize, and manipulate the peptide repertoire of a given TCR. Yeast display has been utilized to study the interactions between peptide-MHCs and T cell receptors to facilitate high-throughput screening of peptide-MHC libraries. Here we present insights on designing and validating a peptide-MHC yeast display construct, designing and constructing peptide libraries, conducting selections, and preparing, processing, and analyzing peptide library sequencing data. Applications for this approach are broad, including characterizing peptide-MHC recognition profiles for a TCR, screening for high-affinity mimotopes of known TCR-binding peptides, and identifying natural ligands of TCRs from expanded T cells.
