Advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies now allow for large-scale characterization of B cell receptor (BCR) and T cell receptor (TCR) repertoires. The high germline and somatic diversity of the adaptive immune receptor repertoire (AIRR) presents challenges for biologically meaningful analysis - requiring the development of specialized computational methods.
The Immcantation framework provide a start-to-finish analytical ecosystem for high-throughput AIRR-seq datasets. Beginning from raw reads, Python and R packages are provided for pre-processing, population structure determination, and repertoire analysis.
