Abstract excerpt
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates exhibit extensive sequence variation, particularly in the gp120 subunit of the envelope glycoprotein, and the degree of this variation has raised questions as to whether conserved regions of the HIV-1 envelope can be recognized by the host immune response. A CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) clone specific for the HIV-1 envelope was derived by culturing...
