Abstract
In this issue of Cell, Liu et al. present FucoID, a glycosyltransferase-mediated tagging platform, to biochemically label and capture antigen-specific T cells. With this technology, the authors isolate and characterize tumor-specific CD8+ and CD4+ T cells in murine tumor models. FucoID shows promise as a tool to enhance the understanding of anti-tumor immune responses.
