Recombinant vaccinia viruses for the characterization of Plasmodium falciparum-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes: recognition of processed antigen despite limited re-stimulation efficacy.
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) have been implicated in immunity to Plasmodium falciparum infection and disease. We have previously described the use of peptides to define malaria-specific CTL epitopes. To determine whether these peptide epitopes are processed intracellularly from the whole antigen we...
