CD8+ T cells from SIV elite controller macaques recognize Mamu-B*08-bound epitopes and select for widespread viral variation.

CD8+ T cells from SIV elite controller macaques recognize Mamu-B*08-bound epitopes and select for widespread viral variation.

BACKGROUND:It is generally accepted that CD8+ T cell responses play an important role in control of immunodeficiency virus replication.
