Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are crucial in viral clearance, disease progression, and reinfection control. However, numerous SARS-CoV-2 immunodominant CTL epitopes theoretically are still unidentified due to the genetic polymorphism of human leukocyte antigen class I (HLA-I) molecules. METHODS: The CTL epitopes of SARS-CoV-2 were predicted by the epitope affinity and...
