Species (MHC/HLA) | human, transgenic mouse(A2) |
Showing all: 3 variant(s).
Variant ID. | 80 |
---|---|
Epitope Seq. | TLNAWVKVV |
Variant Seq. | TLNAWVKVi |
Mutations | V/I |
Epitope Location | V9I |
HXB2 Location | V159I |
Mutation Type | DR: diminished response |
Method | CD8 T-cell Elispot - IFNy, Chromium-release assay |
Note | To identify immunogenically optimized epitopes for use in vaccines, mutants of TV9 were tested in transgenic mice. Natural TV9 mutants tested in transgenic HLA-A*02 mice showed the following responses - the common mutant V9I, TLNAWVKVi was less immunogenic and had low cross-reactivity. TLNAWVKaV (most cross-reactive) and TLNAWVKai were highly immunogenic and cross-reactive to the consensus. |
