A Dominant Role for the Immunoproteasome in CD8+ T Cell Responses to Murine Cytomegalovirus
3 Feb 2011
Abstract excerpt
Murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) is an important animal model of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a β-Herpesvirus that infects the majority of the world's population and causes disease in neonates and immunocompromised adults. CD8(+) T cells are a major part of the immune response to MCMV and HCMV. Processing of peptides for presentation to CD8(+) T cells may be critically dependent on the immunoproteasome, expression...
