Epitope Name | KF11 | ||||||||
Species (MHC/HLA) | human(B*57) |
Showing all: 2 variant(s).
Variant ID. | 2363 |
---|---|
Epitope Seq. | KAFSPEVIPMF |
Variant Seq. | KnFSPEVIPMF |
Mutations | A/N |
Epitope Location | A2N |
HXB2 Location | A163N |
Mutation Type | DHB: diminished HLA binding or increased off-rate LE: literature escape |
Epitope Subtype | B |
Variant Subtype | B |
Method | CD8 T-cell Elispot - IFNy, Sequence |
Note | Controller subject CH-22 had the A163X escape that has a fitness cost. CH-22 lacked the partially compensating mutation S165X, however. Variant A163N was recognized with a lower avidity than wild type KF11. |

Epitope Seq. | KAFSPEVIPMF |
Variant Seq. | rAFSPEiIPMF |
Mutations | K/R V/I |
Epitope Location | K1R V7I |
HXB2 Location | K162R V168I |
Mutation Type | DHB: diminished HLA binding or increased off-rate LE: literature escape |
Epitope Subtype | B |
Variant Subtype | B |
Method | CD8 T-cell Elispot - IFNy, Sequence |
Note | This rare escape was seen in subject CH-13, a controller. CH-13 also displayed a rare substitution in epitope TW10 (TSTLQEQIGW), suggesting that the two rare mutational pathways may be inter-dependent. Avidity of this variant, rAFSPEiIPMF, was much lower than that of wild type KF11. |
