A single CD8+ T cell epitope sets the long-term latent load of a murid herpesvirus.

PLoS pathogens - 1 Oct 2008

Marques Sofia, Alenquer Marta, Stevenson Philip G, Simas J Pedro

Abstract excerpt

The pathogenesis of persistent viral infections depends critically on long-term viral loads. Yet what determines these loads is largely unknown. Here, we show that a single CD8+ T cell epitope sets the long-term latent load of a lymphotropic gamma-herpesvirus, Murid herpesvirus-4 (MuHV-4). The Mu...
