Epitope Seq. | KRWIILGLNK |
Variant Seq. | KkWIImGLNK |
Mutations | R/K L/M |
Epitope Location | R2K L6M |
HXB2 Location | R264K L268M |
Mutation Type | DHB: diminished HLA binding or increased off-rate E: escape documented in this paper |
Method | CD8 T-cell Elispot - IFNy, HLA binding |
Note | Previously reported escape (R2K) variant, confirmed here by lack of EliSpot response in 4 individuals and 348-fold decrease in binding to HLA B27. |

Variant Seq. | KqWIImGLNK |
Mutations | R/Q L/M |
Epitope Location | R2Q L6M |
HXB2 Location | R264Q L268M |
Mutation Type | DHB: diminished HLA binding or increased off-rate E: escape documented in this paper |
Method | CD8 T-cell Elispot - IFNy, HLA binding |
Note | Novel escape variant (R2Q), confirmed by lack of EliSpot response in 4 individuals and 30-fold decrease in binding to HLA B27. The escape mutation is R2Q, since HLA binding to KRWIImGLNK is comparable to KRWIILGLNK binding. |
