A T cell receptor (TCR) having the property of binding to the gp100 YLEPGPVTA peptide-HLA-A2 complex and comprising a TCR alpha variable domain and/or a TCR beta variable domain, characterized in that the domains are mutated relative to a TCR having the extracellular alpha and beta chain sequences SEQ ID NOs: 2 and that the TCR has a binding affinity for, and/or a binding half-life for, the YLEPGPVTA-HLA-A2 complex at least double that of a reference TCR. Embodiments of the invention such as the use of such TCRs in adoptive therapy, and fusions of such TCRs with therapeutic agents are also described.
