Immune selection for altered antigen processing leads to cytotoxic T lymphocyte escape in chronic HIV-1 infection.
Mutations within cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes impair T cell recognition, but escape mutations arising in flanking regions that alter antigen processing have not been defined in natural human infections. In human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B57+ HIV-infected persons, immune se...
