A five-residue HIV envelope helper T cell determinant: does this peptide-MHC interaction leave the binding groove half empty?

abstract：:The U.S. military represents a unique population within the human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) pandemic. The last comprehensive study of HIV-1 in members of the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps (Sea Services) was completed in 2000, before large-scale combat operations were taking place. Here, we present molecular charac...
