Transcriptional errors in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 generate targets for T-cell responses. Academic Article uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • We measured T-cell responses to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) cryptic epitopes encoded by regions of the viral genome not normally translated into viral proteins. T-cell responses to cryptic epitopes and to regions normally spliced out of the HIV-1 viral proteins Rev and Tat were detected in HIV-1-infected subjects.
