Changing Patterns of Dominant TCR Usage with Maturation of an EBV-Specific Cytotoxic T Cell Response
1 Nov 2000
Abstract excerpt
Infection with EBV provides a unique opportunity to follow the human CD8(+) T cell response to a persistent, genetically stable agent from the primary phase, as seen in infectious mononucleosis (IM) patients, into long-term memory. This study focuses on the response to an immunodominant HLA-A2.01-restricted epitope, GLCTLVAML, from the EBV-lytic cycle Ag BMLF1. TCR analysis of the highly amplified primary...
