Abstract excerpt
We have described previously the generation of seven HIV-SF2 Nef-specific, CD4+ T-cell clones, identification of epitopes within which are recognized by these clones, and the MHC alleles that restrict their responses. In this study, we have extended this characterization to include evaluation of antigen-processing and presentation requirements and cytotoxic activity. Clones were generated from five HIV-1...
