Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) play a pivotal role in preventing persistent viral infections and aborting acute infections. H-2Db-restricted CTL optimally recognize a specific peptide of 9 to 11 amino acids (aa) derived from a viral protein and held in place (restricted) by a MHC class I glycoprotein...
