Gag-specific CD8+ T lymphocytes recognize infected cells before AIDS-virus integration and viral protein expression
CD8+ T cells are a key focus of vaccine development efforts for HIV. However, there is no
clear consensus as to which of the nine HIV proteins should be used for vaccination. The early …
