Abstract: The article presents information on the MiTCR, a software package, which extracts information of T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) from sequencing data. It mentions that MiTCR carries out CDR3 extraction, recognizes V, D and J segments and gathers clonotypes. It also informs that more than 80 tests units have evaluated MiTCR modules, thereby improving the reliability and correctness of the code.
