HLA-B5703 is associated with effective immune control in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. Here we describe an escape mutation within the immunodominant HLA-B5703-restricted epitope in chronic HIV-1 infection, KAFSPEVIPMF (Gag 162-172), and demonstrate that this mutation reduces viral replicative capacity. Reversion of this mutation following transmission to HLA-B5703-negative recipients was delayed by the compensatory mutation S165N within the same epitope. These data may help explain the observed association between HLA-B5703 and long-term control of viremia.
HLA - B5703与1型人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV - 1)感染中的有效免疫控制相关。在此,我们描述了慢性HIV - 1感染中免疫显性的HLA - B5703限制性表位KAFSPEVIPMF(Gag 162 - 172)内的一个逃逸突变,并证明该突变降低了病毒复制能力。在传播给HLA - B5703阴性受者后,同一表位内的补偿性突变S165N延迟了该突变的回复。这些数据可能有助于解释观察到的HLA - B5703与病毒血症长期控制之间的关联。
