Identification of mechanisms that program early effector T cells to either terminal (T eff ) or memory m has important implications for protective immunity against infections and cancers. Here, we show the cytosolic transcription factor aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is used by fate. Upon antigen engagement, AhR rapidly up-regulated via reactive oxygen species signaling in CD8 + cells, which does not affect response, but required formation. Mechanistically, activated up-regulate HIF-1α...
