 : The adaptive immune system protects the body from an ever-changing lands
 cape of foreign pathogens. The two arms of the adaptive immune system\, T 
 cells and B cells\, mount specific responses to pathogens by utilizing the
  diversity of their receptors\, generated through hypermutation. T cells r
 ecognize and clear infected hosts when their highly variable receptors bin
 d sufficiently strongly to antigen-derived peptides displayed on a cell su
 rface. To avoid auto-immune responses\, randomly generated receptors that 
 bind strongly to self-peptides are eliminated in the “central\" process 
 of thymic selection\, ensuring a mostly self-tolerant repertoire of mature
  T cells. “Peripheral” tolerance\, including a quorum mechanism furthe
 r protects against self-targeting T cells that escape thymic selection. We
  discuss how these mechanisms can still fail during persistent infections.
