Immune Protection by a Cytomegalovirus Vaccine Vector Expressing a Single Low-Avidity Epitope
3 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Experimental CMV-based vaccine vectors expressing a single MHC class I–restricted high-avidity epitope provided strong, T cell–dependent protection against viruses or tumors. In this study we tested the low-avidity epitope KCSRNRQYL, and show that a mouse CMV (MCMV) vector provides complete immune control of recombinant vaccinia virus expressing the same epitope if KCSRNRQYL is expressed within the...
