T-cell responses to sequentially emerging viral escape mutants shape long-term HIV-1 population dynamics.

T-cell responses to sequentially emerging viral escape mutants shape long-term HIV-1 population dynamics.

HIV-1 strains harboring immune escape mutations can persist in circulation, but the impact of selection by multiple HLA alleles on population HIV-1 dynamics remains unclear. In Japan, HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase codon 135 (RT135) is under strong immune pressure by HLA-B*51:01-restricted and HLA-B*52...
