Abstract excerpt
Class II-restricted T-cell clones elicited by natural infection with influenza A virus (H3N2 subtype) exhibit extensive diversity in their recognition specificity for the envelope glycoprotein, haemagglutinin, and focus on hypervariable regions of the HA1 subunit that feature in antigenic drift. However, T-cell clones established from the same individual focus on a single antigenic site with differing fine...
