Author Location	Tat(38-47)
Epitope	`FQTKGLGISY`	Epitope Alignment
Epitope Name	FY10
Species (MHC/HLA)	human(A*26)
Immunogen	HIV-1 infection
Experimental methods	CD8 T-cell Elispot - IFNγ, Flow cytometric T-cell cytokine assay
Keywords	rate of progression, optimal epitope, chronic infection

Notes

Correlation between HLA class I and spontaneous control of HIV-1 was significant for 7-8 epitopes when 341 chronic, HIV-infected subjects, divided into controllers and non-controllers, were tested for EliSpot responses to 257 optimally defined epitopes. 21 epitopes were associated with viral progression. Protective epitopes tend to cluster in regions of critical stability for the protein, therefore constraining escape.
FQTKGLGISY had a significantly positive association with HLA A*26; it was recognized by 5/17 A*26-positive subjects and 27/324 A*26-negative subjects.

Keywords	rate of progression, immunodominance, early-expressed proteins

Notes

Immunodominant HIV epitopes in early, primary infection of CTLs were identified and the relative contributions of immune responses restricted to individual HLA class I molecules were studied.
This epitope-HLA combination was recognized. The most frequently recognized epitopes also elicited the greatest CTL response.
HIV-1 Epitope sequence variability was not correlated with immunodominant versus immune sub-dominant responses.
HLA-B*57 and HLA-B*27 restricted responses were the strongest in these early and acute infections - due to dominant responses to a single epitope in each case (TW10 for B*57 and KK10 for B*27).
In the presence of HLA-B*57 and HLA-B*27 restricted responses, the relative contributions of other restricting HLA dropped greatly.

Notes

CTL responses restricted by HLA-B*1503 were analyzed in HIV-1 subtype B and C-infected patients. An association between HLA-B*1503 and reduced viral loads in individuals infected with clade B was found. No such correlation was found in clade C infected subjects inspite of the same immunodominant responses in subjects infected with either subtype. Clade B viral control was associated with several subdominanat CTL epitopes lacking in clade C, suggesting that subdominant responses can contribute to viral control.
FQTKGLGISY of clade C is a potential HLA-B*1503 restricted epitope.

Notes

A prediction tool, HLArestrictor, was developed to predict minimal epitopes from longer peptides. Minimal epitopes were predicted and validated for 18 EliSpot-positive 18mers.
FQTKGLGISY was predicted from EliSpot-positive 18mer YHCLVCFQTKGLGISYGR. The epitope was validated in one B*1503-positive HIV-positive individual by tetramer staining.

Notes

Inhibitory receptor [programmed death-1 (PD-1)/lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3)/ T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-3 (Tim-3)] expression was studied during chronic infection in 128 CTL populations from 32 ART-naive, sub-Saharan, HIV-clade C-infected subjects expressing either HLA-B*1503 or -B*4201. PD-1 was found to vary across epitope specificity whether inter- or intra-subject. PD-1 also varied with different TCR clonotypes even within one HIV-specific CTL population. PD-1 correlates directly with viral load (VL).
Differential epitope-linked exhaustion marked by inhibitory receptor expression was seen for FY10-Tat, FQTKGLGISY,-specific CTL. These CTL previously associated with lack of protection expressed high CD127 and low PD-1. CTL specific for FY10-Tat, a highly variable epitope, were found to lack significant correlation with VL.

Notes

HLA class I restricted CD8+ T-cell responses against HIV-1 were analyzed in African patients. Significantly more responses were shown to be HLA-B restricted. Viral load, CD4 count, and thus rate of disease progression were also associated with HLA-B alleles. In addition, the selection pressure imposed on HIV-1 by HLA-B alleles was shown to be substantially greater than by other alleles.
This epitope was suggested to be the epitope within a longer reactive peptide based on correspondence with a known epitope in the HIV database. Also, a significantly higher frequency of people in the Durban cohort who reacted with the peptide had this HLA type.
