Structural and functional determinants of effective CD8+ T cell suppression of HIV-1 replication
CD8+ T cells are a critical component of an HIV-specific immune response. Our studies aimed to define the T cell receptor (TCR) structural determinants as well as effector functions associated with CD8+ T cell suppression of HIV replication. We demonstrate biased gene usage in dominant HIV epitope-s...
