Single-cell adaptive immune receptor repertoire sequencing (scAIRR-seq) offers the possibility to access the nucleotide sequences of paired receptor chains from T-cell receptors (TCR) or B-cell receptors (BCR). Here we describe two protocols and the downstream bioinformatic approaches that facilitate the integrated analysis of paired T-cell receptor (TR) alpha/beta (TRA/TRB) AIRR-seq, RNA sequencing (RNAseq), immunophenotyping, and antigen-binding information. To illustrate the methodologies with a use case, we describe how to identify, characterize, and track SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells over multiple time points following infection with the virus. The first method allows the analysis of pools of memory CD8⁺ cells, identifying expansions and contractions of clones of interest. The second method allows the study of rare or antigen-specific cells and allows studying their changes over time.
