Abstract excerpt
A strong genetic predictor of outcome following untreated HIV-1 infection is the carriage of specific alleles of human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) that present viral epitopes to T cells. Residual variation in outcome measures may be attributed, in part, to viral adaptation to HLA-restricted T cell responses. Variants of the endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidases (ERAPs) influence the repertoire of T cell epitopes...
