Abstract excerpt
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules present endogenous peptides to cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). Elucidation of CTL epitopes of intracellular pathogens helps in designing better vaccines to control economically important human and animal diseases. In this study, candidate epitopes that are potentially available for presentation to the CTLs via five bovine MHC class I molecules have been...
