Identification of multiple HIV-1 cytotoxic T-cell epitopes presented by human leukocyte antigen B35 molecules.

Abstract

In addition to the four HLA-B35-restricted HIV-1 CTL epitopes that have been previously reported, nine HLA-B35-restricted HIV-1 CTL epitopes were identified in the present study. These multiple epitopes will be useful in studies for immunopathogenesis of AIDS.
